More Love

Nancy Wilson, If I Had My Way

I should have listened more and listened well
I should have been your shelter in the rain
I should have touched you more
And held you closer
Till I felt it melt your quiet pain

Should have had more time to spare for you
Should have been there for you
To care for you
With more love...more love

I should have given you the gifts I threw
To total strangers passing through my nights
I could have huddled near your gentle flame
Been warmer there than in there glaring lights

Should have had time to spare for you
Should have been there for you
To care for you
With more move...more love...more love

What would it have taken
If only I had taken
My eyes
Off of me
For a while

I have seen the hurting hiding
Deep behind the curtain of your smile
Your smile

I swore I didn't know, which goes to show
How long it took for me to understand
But if I say enough
And try enough
And pray enough
And cry enough
I can....I still can

Have more time to spare for you
Always be there for you
To care for you
With more love...move love...moooorrreee loooooove.
