I'Ve Been Around

You never noticed me,
But I’ve been around.

Watching you all through school.
Waiting for you to find me.
Heart racing as you pass me by.

You never noticed me,
But I’ve been around.

At the door each day when you deliver our paper.
Wandering past the park where you play ball.
Always too afraid to say hello.

You never noticed me,
But I’ve been around.

Now here we are, grown up and going our way.
You in your uniform, dashing and brave.
Alone out of sight at the station when you board the train.

You never noticed me, 
But I’ll be around.

Waiting right here until you reappear.
I promise I’ll write and pray you’re alright.
Your picture I’ll hold so dear.

Yes, I’ll be around.
