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)
