After All Songtext

von Bob Carlisle

Verse 1:
I stumble to the mirror,
Say everything's alright,
But the man in the mirror
Never lies.
The aging face I see
Staring back at me
Shows the years,
Shows the miles.

Now, I'm no perfect husband,
But I do so love my wife
And mykids are the
Greatest gift I know,
But sometimes when I'm alone,
I still wrestle with my soul
And start feeling out of place
Like a lost boy trying
To get back home, but

Chorus:
After all the heartache and the pain,
All the bridges I have crossed
And the one's I've left in flames,
After all the sorrow and regret,
All the times I've turned away
When you'd call,
You still love me after all.

Verse 2:
The story of my life,
I keep hidden deep inside,
Like a book collecting
Dust upon a shelf,
But it's there inside of me,
That man that no one sees,
The one that falls apart,
But I'm strong enough to
Never let it show, still...

Chorus:.....

Now, I don't pretend to know
Why the truth has been so slow
To go the distance from my
Head down to my heart.
I know the journey's not that great,
But for all the time it takes
You'd swear that they were
Worlds apart, still.....

Chorus:...
