Michelle Branch
Here With Me (20th Anniversary Edition)
[Verse 1]
It's been a long, long time since I looked into the mirror
I guess that I was blind, now my reflection's getting clearer
Now that you're gone, things will never be the same again
There's not a minute that goes by every hour of every day
You're such a part of me, but I just pulled away
Well, I'm not the same girl you used to know
I wish I said the words I never showed

[Chorus]
I know you had to go away
I died just a little
And I feel that now you're the one I need
I beliеve that I
Would cry just a little
Just to have you back now, hеre with me
Here with me

[Verse 2]
You know that silence is loud
When all you hear is your heart
And I wanted so badly just to be a part
Of something strong and true
But I was scared and left it all behind

[Chorus]
I know you had to go away
I died just a little
And I feel that now you're the one I need
I believe that I
Would cry just a little
Just to have you back now, here with me
Here with me
[Post-Chorus]
And I'm asking (Asking)
And I'm wanting you to come back to me, please

[Bridge]
I never will forget the look upon your face
How you turned away and left without a trace
But I understand that you did what you had to do
And I thank you (Thank you, thank you)

[Chorus]
I know you had to go away (Oh, I know you had to go away)
I died just a little
And I feel that now you're the one I need (The one I need)
I believe that I
Would cry just a little (Cry just a little)
Just to have you back now, here with me
I know you had to go away (Oh, I know you had to go away)
I died just a little
And I feel that now you're the one I need (You're the one I need)
I believe that I
Would cry just a little (Would cry just a little, baby)
Just to have you back now, here with me

[Outro]
Here with me
Here with me
Here with me
