She's With Me

She's With Me - Collin Raye

She's with me

I proudly tell the maitre de as we arrive

He seems surprised

In a clumsy moment as he looks for room

For her blessed chair

A table stares

And their eyes show only pity

As they try to sympathize

Oh how difficult that must be look away

Day after day they'll never see

The joy you bring

Only happy at the times

I know that she's with me

I wear it like a badge of honor at the mall

I hear her call

The only way that she is able with a cry

Time to go bye bye she can't say why

Maybe tired maybe hurting

God I wish that I could tell

Do I ever make her happy for awhile

To see her smile makes my week

Though she can't speak

She let's me know she feels my love

When she's with me

I know just what heaven looks like

When I see that perfect face

For no other mortal heart could be so fair

I myself so weak and weary

So imperfect as a man

How could I be the one

You chose to care for our girl

Never done a single deed to earn

The right to share her light

Though it's such a painful road we walk each day

Lord you have your ways this I pray

On the day I stand before you

She'll stand right by my side

When you look upon me

Head hung down in shame

I'll feel the blame

She'll look at me

And then she'll speak

In that precious voice

Don't worry about him my lord

Cuz you see

He's with me
