I Would Be With You © 9/07 Ken Selcer

A long time ago I was young,
I looked at what was to become of me.
A long time ago things were new,
I only could see what was in front of me.

There were no past days, we were all ablaze, had every thing to do.

Missteps I know that I made, come back to shape my every move.
Things that I could have done,
still come back to shadow my every move.

If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.
If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.

Find what touches you. Feel what burns.
See the child grow old, while the mind yearns.
Watch the distance grow between then and today.
Hear the Heavens call, it’s on your way.

Freedom has its rewards - you take every day as if it’s your own.
But the night time cuts like a sword - 6000 nights I have been alone.

If I only knew then what I know now, I would be with you.
If I only knew then what I know now, I would be with you.

A long time ago I was young, I would look up at the sky.
A long time ago things were new
- when I met you I knew I could fly.

If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.
If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.
If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.
If I only knew then what I know now I would be with you.
