  • My love, we have seen it all
    The endless confession, the rise and fall
    As fragile as a child
    But lately, I'm sorry I can't hold a smile

    But I stand tall to get by
    No matter how hard I try to hide

    Did you know I take the time for you?
    Did you know that I would see you through?
    Did you know that I would play the part?
    I must've made it clear right from the start

    My love, can you give me strength?
    Somehow I forgot how to ease my pain
    I know I'm right where I belong
    Something from nothing never proved me wrong

    But I stand tall to get by
    No matter how hard I try to hide

    Did you know I take the time for you? (Did you know?)
    Did you know that I would see you through? (Did you know?)
    Did you know that I would play the part? (Did you know?)
    I must've made it clear right from the start

    I would share my whole life with you
    Would you do the same for me?
    And I would give all I am to you
    Would you do the same for me?

    And I will stand tall to get by
    No matter how hard I try to hide
    Could you see I've been brave?
    Did you notice all my mistakes?
    There were times I could feel you read my mind

    Did you know I take the time for you?
    Did you know that I could see right through?
    Did you know that I would play the part?
    I know I made it clear right from the start Writer/s: Linda Perry
