They Weren't There - Missy Higgins




You breathed infinity into my world

And time was lost up in a cloud and in a whirl

We dug a hole in the cool gray earth and lay there for the

night

Then you said, Wait for me, we'll fly the wind

We'll grow old and you'll be stronger without him



But oh, now my world is at your feet

I was lost and I was found

But I was alive and now I've drowned

So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song

So they can tell me I was wrong



But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped 'til they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

And they weren't taken by the hand

And led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away

So I couldn't say, No



You sighed and I was lost in you, weeks could've past for

all I knew

You were there blanket of the over-world and so I couldn't

say

I wouldn't say, No

And they all said, You're too young to even know

Just don't let it grow and you'll be stronger without him



But oh, now, my world is at your feet

I was lost and I was found

But I was alive and now I've drowned

So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song

So they can tell me I was wrong



But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped 'till they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

And they weren't taken by the hand

And led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away



But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped 'till they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

And they weren't taken by the hand

And led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away

So I couldn't say, No
