Here Today

in AlbumTug Of War

And If I Say I Really Knew You Well

What Would Your Answer Be.

If You Were Here Today.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.

Well Knowing You,

You'd Probably Laugh And Say That We Were Worlds Apart.

If You Were Here Today.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.

But As For Me,

I Still Remember How It Was Before.

And I Am Holding Back The Tears No More.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- I Love You, Ooh-

What About The Time We Met,

Well I Suppose That You Could Say That We Were Playing Hard To Get.

Didn't Understand A Thing.

But We Could Always Sing.

What About The Night We Cried,

Because There Wasn't Any Reason Left To Keep It All Inside.

Never Understood A Word.

But You Were Always There With A Smile.

And If I Say I Really Loved You

And Was Glad You Came Along.

If You Were Here Today.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- For You Were In My Song.

Ooh- Ooh- Ooh- Here To - Day.
