You Won’t Be There Lyrics by Matt Morris

UnSpoken

2002

I'm old enough to recognize
The subtle changes happen' in my life
The world looks different and so do I
But I'm aware that on the inside
I'm mostly man, but still partly child
Mostly calm, but sometimes wild
Mostly fearless, but right now I'm scared
That when I need you...
You won't be there
It ain't just your friendship; it ain't just your love;
Ain't just a matter of trust; it's all of the above
It's knowing that you value who I am
I can only be half a perfect plan...well...
It's a matter of principle; it all boils down to choice;
It's about time that you claim your voice
I've shown that I'm patient - you could show me you care
If you just tell me...
You won't be there...
That you won't be there
When I need you here...
Beside me
Tell me that you won't be there...
I'm willing to give you
The benefit of the doubt
Even though I'm feeling like the odd one out
That's just an emotion; it will probably change
Unless the situation stays the same
One thing I'm sure of is the way I feel
When we're together the world stands still
So where do you stand?
An answer would be fair
Are you ready to tell me...
That you won't be there
