I'm Here Lyrics



I'm here but I wish I was there

I'm here but I wish I was there



A single string that hangs, has got no purpose

Like a poet mute

It's like wool in July or mesh in March

The singer could sing the words he'd never say

A bottle of bleach without a single stain

Is one shot of death



The widow and her love lost is locked away

And shows no sign of turning that key

Honors memory for hopeful purity

She is here but she wishes she was there

In a wishing well believers believe to be in heaven



When second best if your first best

You say pucker those lips and powder your nose

Act like you love me til it's time to go

Put on your face for the world to see

Pour me some wine and I'll be feeling fine
