WHO ARE YOU
Michael A. Curtis
Major Bob Music (ASCAP)
Verse 1
Looking through the nursery glass
Reality came clearer
She told me that it was like
Looking in a mirror
The first time she laid eyes on my
Lying in that baby bed
She said if I could have talked
It’s like I would have said
Chorus
Who are you
I don’t believe I met you
But I’m glad that you’re here
Heaven must have sent you
Won’t you stay with me a while
I never needed someone so
Who are you
I’d really like to know
Verse 2
By the time I turned sixteen
She and I barely got along
She tried to teach me right
But I always told her she was wrong
And after all I put her through
She kept my soul from danger
Sometimes it’s like she was my mom
And yet a total stranger
Bridge
Time has a way of stealing things
That it won’t give us back
And one day it will break your heart
When you have to face the facts
Verse 3
I saw her again today
Like so many times before
I cut her hair
And watched the gray fall to the floor
Her big blue eyes just stated at me
As she lost me in the gaze
And it really brought me to my knew
When I heard my mama say |
