To See

Those times that we were close,

I never wanted them to end

And those times that we spoke,

True words to a dear friend

Those times that we took time

Giving time, a precious gift

Looking back into my mind

It passed by like a mist

I think of all the talks,

Sharing words, sharing hearts

Though both of us knew

The other was bearing scars

I'm not sure what went wrong

If it was that, if it was me

But my heart just sings a song

It sings a painful melody

I hope you understand

I hope that I can say

I don't want to offend

I don’t want my own way

I know that you've been hurt

I hope it was not me

I know I have been there

I wish that you could see

It is hard, yes I know

To move on from the past

But to let it scar the present

Makes the future overcast

I understand the pain

Because I have felt it too

But I just want you to know

That I care about you

I do not want this to end

No, I do not want to run

And I just cannot pretend

That my heart is not undone

God's will will be fulfilled

Regardless of what we do

But as I search for His will

I want to search for it with you

I have far too much to say

There is too much on my mind

I have thought of you by day

And by night I pray you're fine

I may never really know

About what you might think of me

So I'll say, my friend

I just wanted you to see
