I see you - Wild Bill Country
Lyrics by：William Wheaton
Composed by：William Wheaton
The first time I looked into your eyes
I saw the smile everyone else sees
But something in my heart whispered
There's more to this story than she'll ever speak
The closer I got the more I could feel it
The walls you'd built were standing tall
You never had to say a single word
Because I've known what those walls feel like myself
Sometimes the deepest hurt never leaves a trace
Sometimes the strongest people just learn to hide the pain
I don't see walls when I look at you
I see every storm you've battled through
I see a heart that never gave in
Even when nobody stepped in
I don't see someone hard to love
I see someone who's carried enough
If those walls could ever speak
They'd tell a story that would bring
This whole world to its knees
You built those walls because you had to
When you needed someone no one stayed
Every scar became another brick
Every heartbreak showed you the way
Now your smile hides what your heart remembers
The rain may be gone but the walls remain
I understand why they're still standing
I would have done the very same
I'm not asking you to trust me
I know trust takes time
I'm not asking you to let me in until your heart decides
Take all the time you need
I ain't going anywhere
Some things can't be rushed
They just need someone who's there
I don't see walls when I look at you
I see a woman who's made it through
Every scar became another brick
But they never stole the light in you
You don't have to carry all this weight
The way you've always done
When you're ready take my hand
We don't have to run
I'm not here to tear your walls down
I'm just here to stay
Whenever you're ready I'll still be right here
While you find your way back home
