Can You See Me

Tamara Schlesinger


You'll find me there under the tree
Been there for years waiting for peace
I carved my name upon the bark
And hoped that you would find me in the dark

You loved me once of that I am sure
A passing glance turned into much more
Now here I lie below this field a bag
Of bones on ground where I once kneeled

Can you see me
Can you feel me
Can you see me
Can you feel me

Now I'm not proud of who I was
I left this town ashamed of my past
But I came to you to save my soul
And I hoped that you would guide me in this world

Can you see me
Can you feel me
Can you see me
Can you feel me

They followed you back from the bar
And told you then that you couldn't hide
But you took your secrets and my name
And you buried them beside you that same day

Can you see me
Can you feel me
Can you see me
Can you feel me
Can you see me
Can you feel me
