Grant Maloy Smith - I See You Lyrics

I See You
© 2019 words and music Grant Maloy Smith (BMI) and Mike Greenly (ASCAP)


Young and strong and all of that
They run by and don't look back
They didn't seem to noticeyou were leaning on a cane

You were once like they are now
Starry eyed, laughing loudYou spent a lifetime building up
The world we have today

Time runs like rivers to the sea
Time pulls you in like gravity

You feel fragile - but you're strongThink you're invisible - but you're wrong
I've been inspired by your courage all along
I see your whole life shining throughI see you

After all the years you've lived
Giving all you had to give
Folks call you a ""senior now
As if that were your name

You built cars and factories
Saved us all from tyranny
After all your eyes have seen
Your world just ain't the same

Time runs like rivers to the sea
Time pulls you in like gravity

Chorus

All the friends and all the loved ones
Who have gone
Every brave face, every smile that you put onIn these twilight hours, wishing can't hold back the dawn

Chorus
