Lyrics:
Well hello, never thought I'd see that face again
Lord, I can't remember when the last time was
But here you are, hidden in a box of odds and ends
Tucked between some pictures of old men, my old friend
These things just needed going through
The last thing I thought I'd find was you
But here you are, smiling that smile
Breezy as a summer's day
Here you are, looking at me that easy way
As if to say, here you are
Well I know I really ought to throw you out
Someday I'll just have to lie about why you're here
But here I am taking another chance with you
Taking another glance or two at those eyes
And here's a kiss for old time's sake
Thank God hearts don't really break
'Cause here you are, smiling that smile
Breezy as a summer's day
Here you are, looking at me that easy way
As if to say, here you are
We lost each other then lost track
But I had a feeling, one day you'd be back
And here you are
It's ironic that I just listened to Give Me Time and made a comment about the photo Cindy used with the song. Then Here You Are was in my suggestions and somehow I missed it from before so I just listened to it now. It's such a perfect song for how I"m feeling. Listening to Michael's songs - discovering "new" songs of his, seeing the pictures Cindy adds, it makes me feel like he's still with us. Like Michael is just out there recording new stuff and still touching our hearts. I get to listen to his songs and think, "here you are." And it makes me smile - and miss him.
you hit it on the nail !
Gorgeous. The genius of Prestwood and Johnson on display once again.
I'll never forget this song I never forget Michael. Rest in peace and thanks for all of it
I had forgotten about this song. What a treasure!
I love this more than you know, Cindy. Thank you!
