I Got You to See Me Through - Eleanor McEvoy

Before I met you I was lost

I’d been let down and double crossed

I played the fool, I played my games

Winning some along the way

But all the same, it was a shame

And I’ve only me to blame

For how I’d lost my way

And so I locked myself inside

I nursed my broken wounded pride

And in my eagerness to hide

I left my heart behind

Oh, what a cost, my heart got lost

But now it’s been found

You picked it off the ground

And now you’ve come to soothe me

Bewitch me and amuse me

How did you ever choose me?

And if you will excuse me

I’d like to return

The same to you

It’s the least I can do

I got you to see me through

Looking out for what I do

Springing sunshine from the skies

Placing rainbows in my eyes

Got you watching out for me

Making sense of what I see

When my world is wearing blue

I got you to see me through

Your tongue is wrapped in solid gold

The greatest story ever told

With words that dance and sing to me

With eyes that shimmer like the sea

A refugee, who grew to be

The apple of my eye

I really don’t know why

I was so taken by your face

That was the first of my mistakes

And though I’d many more to make

I am so glad that I fell down, and came around

To where you were

At the mercy of your charms

I fell into your arms

That it was then it hit me

That love had come to grip me

Of all the skills I’d with me

I’d nothing to equip me

With all I’d to do

Now you’re here

It all becomes clear

I got you to see me through

Looking out for what I do

Springing sunshine from the skies

Placing rainbows in my eyes

Got you watching out for me

Making sense of what I see

When my world is wearing blue

I got you to see me through

I got you to see me through

Looking out for what I do

Springing sunshine from the skies

Placing rainbows in my eyes

Got you watching out for me

Making sense of what I see

When my world is wearing blue

I got you to see me through

I got you to see me through

Looking out for what I do

Springing sunshine from the skies

Placing rainbows in my eyes

Got you watching out for me

Making sense of what I see

When my world is wearing blue

I got you to see me through

I got you to see me through

Looking out for what I do

Springing sunshine from the skies

Placing rainbows in my eyes

Got you watching out for me

Making sense of what I see

When my world is wearing blue

I got you to see me through

I got you to see me through, ah
