Bruce Cockburn

 

So many things to see in this old world

   But all I can see is you

In a crowded subway train

Or walking in a country lane

   You're there with me too

 

Of all the songs sung in any day

   Your voice is all I hear

And though each song will have it's day

And finished, quickly fades away

   I hear you everywhere

 

And though I know you won't be pleased by all that I do

Surely we can find a way to overlook what you don't like

 

Well it's been said many times that we're all by ourselves

   And each one is on his own

Well I don't care, that may be true

I just want to be with you

   Together alone
