[ When I Needed You ] 

(Ben Thomas)

When you cry for me 
Here's what I will do 
I'll slip into your dreams at night 
And comfort you 
And when you hear my cry 
Do that in reverse 
Imagine you are flying through the universe 

I know the distance scares you 
But it's really not far 
'Cause I'll be on the corner 
In that neighborhood of stars 

And when I needed you 
I'll just call out loud 
And you'll look up 
and see me standing on a cloud 
I'll say "Come closer please" 
And you'll stand on a chair 
And with silver wings 
I'll hold you in the trembling air 

And when you hear me whistle 
Consider that a clue 
Another way of saying 
How much I'm missing you 

But I'm not up there yet 
I've got miles to go 
Miles and miles 
To dream with you 
And watch you grow 

And now I think I'll practice what I will do 
And I'm up there and I'm missing you
