You're There - Lyrics - Barry Manilow

Our friends all use the past tense when they speak of you And so to make them comfortable I use it too They'd soon have me committed if only they knew What I believe with all my heart is true I know you're there Although it's nothing I can prove I know you're there By just the way the shadows move And though I say goodbye and finally let you go I know you're there Although I don't know how I know I know you see The crazy things I sometimes do They make you laugh So I still do them just for you And while I'm entertaining all the friends I love I know you see And that you're laughing from above You needn't panic I'm not consulting any guru Calling psychics Or practicing with voodoo I'm not manic or depressive I just miss you So I'll go on Enjoying every lovely day Because I'm sure You would've wanted it that way And when there's sorrow it's not more than I can bear Because you are, and always were, and always will be there
