Lyrics:

Well, I've known for a long time
The kind of girl you are
Of a smile that covers teardrops
The way your head yields to you heart

Of things you've kept inside
That most girls could not bear
I've known you for a long time
But I've just begun to care

I've known of all the heartaches
I've known of all the pain
I've seen you when the sun shines
And I've seen you when it rains

I've seen you make a look of love
From just an icy stare
I've known you for a long time
But I've just begun to care

Oh, I know I've been blind
To not have loved you all this time
But the image of you was not clear
I guess I've been standing too near

Oh, it's taken me a while
But I have finally found
What you are to me
And that's what really counts

What you are to me
Is something we can share
I've known you for a long time
But I've just begun to care

Oh, I know I've been blind
To not have loved you all this time
But the image of you was not clear
I guess I've been standing too near

And it's taken me a while
But I have finally found
What you are to me
And that's what really counts

What you are to me
Is something we can share
I've known you for a long time
But I've just begun to care
Yes, I've known you for a long time
But I've just begun to care
