I was only a girl
When I went out on my own
You wrapped me up warm
And just let me go
Now I live at the far end
Of this long distance line
And I`m just another one
Who`s gone and left you behind
Wish we could look at your pictures
All the places you`ve been
I don`t think you will
But you can see them again
`Cause you can see them through me
The brown eyes I got from you
Now I wish I could give `em back to you
This much I can say
This much I can do
When your heart is empty
I`ll try to fill it for you
`Cause I`m the girl who learned to love
From watching you
Wish that I could tell you
It`ll all be all right
But you never did believe it
Through the trials of your life
You and I both know
It just isn`t true
When so much you love
Has been taken from you
I remember when you told me
If we run out of time
How happy you were
Just to know she`ll be mine
When I wrap her up warm
You`ll be right next to me
`Cause they say that the red thread that ties me to you
Ties her to me
This much I can say
This much I can do
When your heart is empty
I`ll try to fill it for you
This much I can say
This much I can do
When your heart is empty
I`ll try to fill it for you
`Cause I`m the girl who learned to love
From watching you
Watching you
Watching you
