Is It You?

from Maybe Man by Jim Beckwith

about

Simplicity in action. Another of the oldest of my tunes. Written as a teen, I believe. I'd like to hear some strings on this someday..

Is it you?
lyrics and music by Jim Beckwith ©1982

Is it you?
Is it you I've really seen tonight?
If I knew you weren't asleep
I'd make a call of confirmation.

Was it you?
Big brown eyes that shone so bright:
Was my dream not a dream at all tonight?

Tell me that you're there:
that you are, that you will be,
and that you'll always care.

We'll be the best of friends,
nothing comes between us:
you can lean on me
and I just might lean on you.

Don't let it ever end
when the hard times come:
I will wipe your eyes,
and you can dry my tears.

Tell me that you're there:
that you are, that you will be,
and that you'll always care.
Don't let it ever end, and never go away:

Just one more thing before I go
If you'd be so kind just to let me know: Is it you?
