My name won't mean a thing to you The hometown you're just passing through My friends and dreams and blues But I was here Like a hand print in an ancient cave A stranger's name on a lonely grave I leave this song to say That I was here I was here, I was here I was here I got dread and dreams I can't describe A hero myth set to my times And imagined, unlived lives While I was here Got a secret dream I'd die to guard Of what I could be if I tried hard And saw with just my heart While I was here I was here, I was here I was here And ever since I was a kid I've been transfixed by my own visions of life And I'd lay awake on school nights and I'd live out all those fables in my mind Try to create my place in lonely human heritage we're born into and bound to carry on So when our people and our instants are dead and distant they'll be ancient, never gone I was here, I was here I was here I was here, I was here I was here I'm not sure how my life'll go If contending in good faith and hope Will leave anything to show For being here But the continuation comforts me New kids from here will form new dreams An ancestor is all I'll be But I was here I was here, I was here And when my world has disappeared This song remains to make it clear That I was here
