I Can See It Now (Mary Chapin Carpenter) I can see it now, walking by myself And suddenly you're there walking with somebody else I can see it now, what's right up ahead A scene I've played a thousand times over in my head I can see it now, it isn't just a dream Can't shake myself awake, can't fall right back to sleep Face to face I come right up to the truth I can see it now, I'm still not over you I can hear it now, your voice saying my name It's too late for me to walk the other way I can hear it now, asking how I've been Oh and by the way have you met my friend I can hear it now, a breaking all apart A strange familiar sound that's coming from my heart Feeling just as bad as the day that it was new I can see it now, I'm still not over you When you're out of sight, baby you're still on my mind you're much too hard to lose, you're too easy to find Like a bottle to a drunk, like trouble to a fool I've only ever seen, just what I've wanted to I can feel it now, as you walk away Something left unsaid and the nothing left to say I can feel it now like weather in my bones Before it even comes, before I even know I can feel it now, the empty and the ache That bitter little pill that I don't want to take Instead I'd swallow all the pride I ever knew To crawl back if you asked, all that I would do I can see it now
