I Was There

Come on baby, hold me close

Let me do my best to both,

Let me ride, let it roll

I was there to catch a man

I thought I had him by the hand

I only had him by the glove

Come on baby, let me in

You can show yourself to him

You can show me through the doors

And I was there, catching air

Thought I had him by the hand

I only had him by the glove

We was there, in the road

Picking diamonds from a tree

Heard a wolf coming through

Coming through and coming hard,

Tried to leave the heat and gone

Tried to lean against the wall

I'll be there, coming clean

Like a runner in the wind

Coming through the morning light

Rising in, in the stone

Tried to leave the heat at home

Running through the morning dim

And I was there to catch a man,

I thought I had him by the hand

I only had him by the glove

Come on baby, let me close

Let me do my best to both

Run through but cut close

Come on baby, let me in

You can show yourself to him

Ride the road, ride it rough

Yeah in the day I was gone,

Tried to leave the heat at home

Run through and run the road

I was there, coming clean

Like a runner in the wind

Coming through the morning light

You'll be there, on the floor

Picking diamonds from a stone

Looking through the totem pole
