You Should See Me Now

6 ContributorsYou Should See Me Now Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A thousand miles
And twenty minutes sleep
The testing patience (Patience)
The taste of defeat, it's in my eyes
A distant memory
Cold and lonely midnight pavement told me not to wait

[Pre-Chorus]
Good things come to those who persevere
And it takes blood, sweat, distance and tears
No fear, no excuses

[Chorus]
All that could've been, does it haunt you now?
Is this what you meant when you'd see me around?
How could I forget you only had your doubts?
Well, maybe that was then but
You should see me now

[Verse 2]
No, I'm never home
It's all I got, I can't let it go
It's all I've ever known
I've dragged myself across airports and oceans
But I still miss you and the sound of train lines
Only sometimes

[Chorus]
All that could've been, does it haunt you now?
Is this what you meant when you'd see me around?
How could I forget you only had your doubts?
Well, maybe that was then but
You should see me
Now and then I think of the past and all I gave up
The sacrifice it takes, yeah, I hope I made you proud
And if you got a dream, don't let 'em get you down
Throwing wishes in the wind
Yeah, you should see me now

[Pre-Chorus]
Good things come to those who persevere
And it takes blood, sweat, distance and tears
No fear, no excuses

[Chorus]
All that could've been, does it haunt you now?
Is this what you meant when you'd see me around?
How could I forget you only had your doubts?
Well, maybe that was then but
You should see me now
(See me now)
