She Was There - Daniel Rodríguez

many nights I have stood in the moonlight

Watching it fade with the dawn

Wanting her back with me, warm in the moonlight

Knowing that moment was gone

Out of mind, out of sight,

Till the moon rose ronight

All at once, I felt a chill

In a spill of moonlight, she was there

Though we both held very still

There was something pulling in the air

When she whispered through the dark

I tried hard to hold my ground

I believed I had a choice

Till the music in her voice

Turned my whole world around

I would like to understand

But the stars and I begin to blur

If she never touched my hand

Then what filled me with the feel of her?

In between us stood a wall

In a flash it fell apart

Is it possible she heard

Every last unspoken word

Racing out of my heart?

She never turned to me, but suddenly

We had so much to share!

I never took her in my arms, but she was there

Oh, she was there!

No, I never pulled her in Still her tenderness was everywhere

Oh, she slipped beneath my skin

Just as if she’d always been right there

Has she been there all along?

Was I too far gone to know?

What a fool I must have been

For how could I pull her in When I’ve never let her go?
