Knowin' You're Around

(album: Knowin' You're Around - 1980)

Before the pain could die
I had to learn to cry
Tears were trapped behind a frozen stare
I kept it all inside
I took my life in stride
It's not easy to share when there's no one to care
But Your love was so strong
Gently proved I was wrong
It's so good to know You're always there

You hold me when I'm lonely
You take away the pain
You have never let me down
And oh if I could only be able to explain
The way it makes me feel just knowing You're around

You made it clear to me
That You'd be near to me
When You said that You would never leave
Still every now and then
I feel alone again
It's so easy to be
Feeling sorry for me
But when You take my hand
Somehow I understand
That Your love is all I really need

You hold me when I'm lonely
You take away the pain
You have never let me down
And oh if I could only be able to explain
The way it makes me feel just knowing You're around
The way it makes me feel just knowing You're around
