Just Look At You Now

Howard Jones


I've known you since you were a girl 
When things just didn't work out for you 
I said don't crack up and see both sides 
But you kept on blaming the world for everything 
I tried to tell you that you were in control 
But you didn't seem to listen to a word I say 
But I'm never giving up giving up on you (I try to ) 
Help you see the world in a different way 

Hey Yeah - just look at you now 
Riding on a silver wave 
That keeps on going 
Through the sun and through the rain 
Through the good and the bad times 
Through the joy and through the pain 
Hey look at you now 
See what you've become 

Now look me in the eye, now and tell me straight 
Did you find it hard to tell me everything 
I said things can only get better dear 
But they won't if you don't lift a finger to help me 
What's the point in taking this human form 
If we can't understand the point of living here 
Who would ever want to live alone 
Without sharing this world with everyone and everything 

Just look at you now 
Riding on a silver wave 
That keeps on going 
Through the sun and through the rain 
Through the good and the bad times 
Through the joy and through the pain 
Hey look at you now 
See what you've become
