lyrics
I’ve Been Thinking About You (2022)
By Michael C Kelly
Verse 1
I haven’t seen you in a long time
I haven’t seen you at all
Someone I don’t know took you
To engage in their brawl
Verse 2
Where a person’s life is frenzied
Tearful eyes drained by the night
They can’t see, in spite of you and me,
Why they were dragged into this fight
Chorus:
I’ve been thinking about you
I will never let you go
Let the world fight without you
Cause, I think it’s time; it’s time for us to go
Bridge
You know we need a world of peace
Sung from everywhere we are
Call it what you will
It’s sheltered from the kill
But first, I must find you …
Verse 4
So, be careful how you listen
Know exactly who they are
They’re never happy without pointing
Their vicious instruments of harm
Chorus
I’ve been thinking about you
I will never let you go
Let the world fight without you
Cause, I think it’s time, it’s time for us to go
Outro
Cause, I think it’s time
Cause, I think it’s time
Cause, I think it’s time yes, it’s time for us to go
