When You Look at Me (Shane's Song) Lyrics

When you look at me

Don't just see what your eyes see

A body that won't listen to my will

If you'd just look inside

Very soon you'd realize

There's a fire that these struggles

Can not kill

See my heart, see my spirit

See the light that shines in me

See the love I could offer

And the friend that I would be

All I ask when you're looking

Please don't only see

What it is that your eyes alone see

And when you talk with me

Know the words that I can't say

They're in me, but they're locked so deep inside

It's not that I don't know

And it is not that I don't care

And you would know that if you'd look me in the eyes

Hear my heart, hear my spirit

Hear the voice that hides in me

Hear the love I could offer

And the friend that I would be

All I ask when you're with me, please don't only hear

Just those words that might fall upon your ears.

The way we travel's different

But this road we're on is the same

If you'll journey with me a while

You'll be glad you came

'Cause there are gifts we both can offer

And there are lessons we can share

But you are never going to know that

If you don't meet me halfway there

So spend some time with me

And get to know just who I am

Know my laugh, know my smile, know my soul

I can listen if you need

If you have secrets I will keep them

Or simply sit and be a hand to hold

Know my heart, know my spirit

Know the light that shines in me

Know the love I will offer

And the Friend that I will be

All I ask when you're with me

Open up your heart and see

All those things that make up the whole of me

And don't only see what it is

Your eyes see

There's more to me

When you look at me

When you look at me
