Released as a uk single in may, 1969



Hey there

Look in the mirror

Are you afraid you might see me looking at you

Waiting, waiting at windows

Oh it's me that you need

Yes it's me and i'm waiting for you



But i remain silent

Oh i won't say a word

I leave you to realise i'm the light in your world

And it's me, yes it's me, yes it's me, yes it's me

That you're needing

It's me, yes it's me, yes it's me, yes it's me

That you need

Yes it's me, yes it's me, yes it's me

If you want to be living

I'm the one who's forgiving

Admit that it's me that you need





Watching, watching the swallows fly

It all means the same

Just like them

You can fly home again

But don't, no don't forget yesterday

Pride is an ugly word girl

And you still know my name
