Where Were You - Lyrics by Karen Lehner


Lyrics

Maybe the sun will rise at midnight
And maybe the moon will fall in the sea
And maybe the stars will burn out like candles
And maybe you'll keep your promise to me

I wasn't looking for all your tomorrows
And i never dreamed of eternity
And i never asked for this ring around my finger
But that was the promise that you made to me

So where were you when i reached for you last night
Where were you a thousand nights before
I know you say you love me
I know you say you want me
But it's not true
Cause what you say
Is not what you do

Look me in the eyes and tell me
Let me see your heart and i will know the truth

Where were you when i fell down on my knees
Where were you when i needed someone there
I know you say you love me
I know you say you want me
But it's not true
Cause what you say
Is not what you do

Now i know the sun will rise tomorrow
And i know the moon will fill tonight's sky
And i know the stars will burn bright as candles
And i know you want to give us one more try
And i know i will
When i see pigs fly
