For You To Be Here

It's been a little while since I looked in your eyes

And walked that bridge to the other side

Mama says it's gonna get cold in the night

But if I picture you then I'll be alright

I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here.It's been a little while since I've held your hands

oh my arms won't stretch to your distant land

Give me every person in the whole wide world

and I'll pick you out in a second, girl.

I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here.For you, for you, to be here.

For you, for you, to be here.It's been too many seconds since I've seen your face

and for all I know you're in outer space

Dancing to the rhythms of the shooting stars

thinking of the times that forever are ours

I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here.For you, for you, to be here.

For you, for you, to be here.It's been a little while since I've held your hands

oh my arms won't stretch to your distant land

Give me every person in the whole wide world

and I'll pick you out in a second, girl.

I am ready, I am ready, for you to be here.
