Chris de Burgh - Here For You

here for you lyrics

written by chris de burgh

D G A D G A D
i don’t know where the time has gone , suddenly here we are alone ,
G A D A
only a word before you go , everyone’s waiting;
D G A D G A D
so many friends to say goodbye , so many tears they’ll have to cry ,
G A D A
so many wings to help you fly where you are going;

D G D G D G A
and now a plane must take away my child that life has found ,
D G D G G A
and you will be up in the sky , and i’ll be on the ground ,
G A D
sending my love with you tonight;

D G x3 D A
i will be waiting ,
D G x3 D A
i will be waiting ,
G A D
here for you , here for you;

i don’t know where the years have gone ,
suddenly here , and you have grown ,
it was like only yesterday when you were so young;
but here is the day we had to see , always the same eternally ,
this is the way that it must be , now it is your world;

and so a plane must take away my child that time has found ,
and you will be up in the sky , and i’ll be on the ground ,
sending my dreams with you tonight;

i will be waiting . . . . . i’m trying not to show ,
but seeing you go , is the hardest thing that i have known;

i will be waiting , don’t worry ’bout me , i’ll be alright *
i will be waiting , don’t worry ’bout me , i’ll be alright ,
here for you , here for you ,

i don’t know where the years have gone . . . . .
