More Love

I should have listened more and listened well
 I should have been your shelter in the rain
 I should have touched you more
 And held you closer
 'Til I felt it melt your quiet pain
 Should have had more time to spare for you
 Should have been there for you
 To care for you
 With more love
 More love
 I should have given you the gifts I threw
 To total strangers passing through my nights
 I could have huddled near your gentle flame
 Been warmer there than in these glaring lights
 Should have had more time to spare for you
 Should have been there for you
 To care for you
 With more move
 More love
 More love
 What would it have taken?
 If only I had taken my eyes off of me for a while
 I have seen the hurting hiding
 Deep behind the curtain of your smile
 Your smile
 I swore I didn't know, which goes to show
 How long it took for me to understand
 But if I say enough, and try enough
 And pray enough, and cry enough
 I can
 I still can
 Have more time to spare for you
 Always be there for you
 To care for you
 With more love
 Move love
 More love
