Karaoké They Weren't There Missy Higgins

You breathed infinity into my world

And time was lost up in a cloud and in a whirl

We dug a hole in the cool grey earth and lay there for the night

Then you said wait for me we'll fly the wind

We'll grow old and you'll be stronger without him

But, oh, now my world is at your feet

I was lost and I was found

But I was alive and now I've drowned

So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song so they can tell me

I was wrong

But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped till they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

They weren't taken by the hand and led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away so I couldn't say no

You sighed and

I was lost in you weeks could've past for all I knew

You were there blanket of the over-world and so I couldn't say

I wouldn't say no

But they all said you're too young to even know

Just don't let it grow and you'll be stronger without him

But oh, now my world is at your feet

I was lost and I was found

But I was alive and now I've drowned

Now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song so they can tell me

I was wrong

But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped till they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

And they weren't taken by the hand and led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away

But they weren't there beneath your stare

And they weren't stripped till they were bare

Of any bindings from the world outside that room

And they weren't taken by the hand and led through fields of naked land

Where any pre-conceived ideas were blown away so I couldn't say no
