You Had To Be There Lyrics
I can do my best to tell you what it feels like in my skin
But you can't really know a man till you've gone where he's been
I could give you all the details, but you'd never understand
What it means to let that woman slip right through your hands
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
Had to feel the passion running wild
To really know the woman and the child
I guess you had to be there
Until she's stripped the layers off and seen into your soul
Till you've watched her make a diamond from a worthless piece of coal
Till you've held an angel and let her fly away
You won't ever understand no matter what I say
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
Had to feel the passion running wild
To really know the woman and the child
I guess you had to be there
I guess you had to be there when she smiled
Had to feel the passion running wild
Till you've walked in my shoes for a mile
I guess you had to be there
I guess you had to be there
I guess you had to be there
But you can't really know a man till you've gone where he's been
I could give you all the details, but you'd never understand
What it means to let that woman slip right through your hands
Had to feel the passion running wild
To really know the woman and the child
I guess you had to be there
Till you've watched her make a diamond from a worthless piece of coal
Till you've held an angel and let her fly away
You won't ever understand no matter what I say
Had to feel the passion running wild
To really know the woman and the child
I guess you had to be there
Had to feel the passion running wild
Till you've walked in my shoes for a mile
I guess you had to be there
I guess you had to be there
I guess you had to be there
