Witness to Your Life

Someone was cryin? and the bells rang
 Then I don? t remember a thing
 You were talkin? but the words came
 From somebody else
 Someone said kiss her and so you did
 I was smilin? like a little kid
 You kissed my teeth and then we both hid
 Inside each other? s arms
 All you really need is someone to be here
 Someone who? ll never let you disappear
 And I will be that witness to your life
 This maybe just a softer place to fall
 But somebody will answer when you call
 And I will be that witness to your life
 You got that job and join the union
 Fought every urge, I told you to run
 Stared down the barrel of an empty gun
 And wandered a bit
 Stopped listenin? to all your friends
 They think this is where life begins and ends
 No one reaches, no one transcends
 They just learn to live with it
 All you really need is someone to be here
 Someone who? ll never let you disappear
 And I will be that witness to your life
 You should never have to be alone
 Someone will always call you home
 And I will be that witness to your life
 All you really need is someone to be here
 Someone who? ll never let you disappear
 And I will be that witness to your life
 Baby, I will be that witness to your life
 Up the road, your car comes into view
 And from a furlong I just smile at you
 Another day I thank the Lord that you
 Took the right road home
