Here I Am Emmylou Harris

[Verse 1:]
I am standing by the river
I will be standing here forever
And though you're on the other side
My face, you still can see
Why won't you look at me?

[Chorus:]
Here I am
Here I am

[Verse 2:]
I am searching through the canyon
It is your name that I am calling
Though you're so far away
I know you hear my plea
Why won't you answer me?

[Chorus]
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am

[Verse 3:]
I am in the blood of your heart
The breath of your lung
Why do you run for cover?
You are from the dirt of the earth
And the kiss of my mouth
I have always been your lover
