The past Before Me and you

I can see you turn away
When I ask what for
You say it isn't anything
But I'm not sure

Something underneath the skin
Won't let you be
And you try to keep it in
But I can see

your parents Must have been hard on you
'Cause that hurt in your eyes
I never put you through

Sometimes I think
You must be talking to
The people before me and you

Sometimes in an argument
It will show
When you go a little farther
than You meant to go

I know you don't mean the things That you say
I just want to ease the pain
That's in your way

If there are sorrows that bring back a tear
Don't let them keep us apart
You ought to know you've got nothing to fear

Here in my heart
'Cause you and I will never be
Like the past

Whatever kind of memories
That you have
Nothing’s going to hurt you now
Can't you see
I already made a vow
That I can keep
