How You Showed Me Love

I might have been a child but it wasn't until I knew how to dream that I felt real All the good things, and the bad Helping me smile when I was shy I was alive from the vibes you gave me Taking your time so I could see the truth. How you showed me love I remember everything you did And every face you played Affects the way I play I learnt to live your way Every day, Every day I might have been alone, and never found Talking to a wall, or I coulda drowned Weighing up blame Stirring up hate, shouting you down But you kept giving me time Watching my feet, making drum beats When i fall, i don't frown How you showed me love I remember everything you did And every face you played affects the way I play I learnt to live your way Every day, Every day oh, try, try, try again The look in your eyes as you waited for me Taking your time, so I could see the truth. How you showed me love I remember everything you did And every face you played affects the way I play I learnt to live your way Every day, Every day updated: (written as a song - https://soundcloud.com/inspiraller/how-you-showed-me-love-phone-recording-draft2)
