See Myself In You

If I met you on the corner

Would I know you, as you are?

Would I take you for a stranger?

And brush past you in the doorIf you called me, would I hear you

Or would I walk away too soon?

If I lingered for a moment

Would I see myself in you?If I fought you as a soldier

If I had you in my sights

Would you ask me to remember?

Who imagined, I was rightIf you witnessed my surrender

Do I know, what I would do?

If you held me like my brother

Would I see myself in you?Well, I dreamed my end was near

I was almost gone

If I dream that dream from here

Can I still come home?If you called me, would I hear you

Do I know what I would do?

If you held me like my father

Would I see myself in you?

If you held me like my mother

Would I see myself in you?
