Lyrics Here I Am - Mary Chapin Carpenter

I′ve waited longer for lesser things
But here I am
Who really knows what tomorrow brings,
But here I am
Just in case you were wondering
Just in case you got lost again
Just in case you run out of friends, here I am

It's so easy just to rip and to tear, so here I am
What you need the most
Disappears into thin air, so here I am
Maps and compasses may stay true
It doesn′t really matter what you do
I have never forgotten you
Here I am

Some days our reach
Is bound to far exceed our grasp
I gave up hoping long ago
I could fix the past, here I am

Today I called you
For the very first time in a million years
You would never know if I told you so
About these million tears
Life doesn't wave as it's speeding by
Better grab on fast and hold on tight
And don′t ever forget to fight this good fight
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
