Lyrics

Hope it's not too late, but I know this needs saying.
You've done all the giving, I know I've done the taking
I've been looking everywhere except at you.
I've been taking you for granted all these years.
There you were, all I ever needed.

And I've just begun to see it, like a truth I just discovered.
Oh, but you, you knew it all the time.

You were always there, but I hardly ever noticed.
I could see the trees, but my eyes missed the forest.
Never had a dream that you were not a part of.
But I guess I never recognized the face.
There you were, all I ever needed.

And I've just begun to see it, like a truth I just discovered.
Oh, but you, you knew it all the time.All the time.

How could I have been so blind?
How could you not cross my mind?
Why did it take all this time to learn I love you, when you always knew?

Now at last I know why it is that I'm living.Now I know the reason I get up every morning.
There must have been a thousand times you thought of leaving.
But you stayed, and I can thank the Lord above for your love.
It's all I ever needed.
And I've just begun to see it, like a truth I just discovered.
Oh, but you, you knew it all the time, Mmmmm
You knew it all the time.
