Not for Nothing Songtext
von Tim Finn

I was ready for you,
I′ll never know how to thank you,
Everything that you do,
Is setting me free.
All the wisdom in the world,
Couldn't penetrate or ring true,
If not for my little girl.
It′s not for nothing that I.

I was waiting for you,
Behind a high wall of poses,
Now I look at life through,
Your innocent eyes.
Teach me how to be a child,
You can slip through my defences,
Inhibition running wild,
Mass confusion in my senses.


Nearer, I really mean sincere,
Open your heart to me,
I just wanted to let you know,
That I want to be nearer.
Let's make a start together,
I couldn't let you go,
I just wanted to let you know,
The nearer you are,
The clearer I see,
The clearer I see,
The nearer you are,
The nearer you are,
The happier I will be.

I was ready for you,
I′ll never know how to thank you,
Everything that you do,
Is setting me free.
All the wisdom in the world,
Couldn′t penetrate or ring true,
If not for my little girl.
It's not for nothing that I,
It′s not for nothing that I,
Love you,
Love you,
It's not for nothing that I,
Love you,
It′s not for nothing that I,
Want you,
It's not for nothing that I,
Need you.
It′s not for nothing
Love you.
