Here I Am

Mary-Chapin Carpenter

7

I've waited longer for lesser things

But here I am

Who really knows what tomorrow brings

But here I am

Just in case you were wondering

Just in case you lost again

Just in case you run out of friends, here I am

It's so easy to rip and to tear, se here I am

What you need the most

Disappears into thin air, so here I am

Maps and compasses may stay true

It doesn't really matter what you do

I have never forgotten you

Here I am

Some days our reach

Is bound to far exceed our grasp

I gave up hoping long ago

I could fix the past, here I am

Today I called you

For the very first time in a million years

You would never know if I told you so

About these million tears

Life doesn't wave as it's speeding by

Better grab on fast and hold on tight

And don't ever forget to fight this good fight

And here I am

Here I am

Here I am

Here I am
