When You Look at Me (feat. Randy Houser)

When You Look At Me

I’ve left a lot behind, people, places, and my heart sometimes

But you wouldn’t know it

I’m looking for a future, trying to find my footing on a brand new path

But I don’t always show it

Sitting at the movies or walking through the grocery store

You can’t see the soldier that I was before

When you look at me

There’s a whole lot that you don’t see

I’m walking round in memories you don’t know nothing about

Sometimes I’m not ok, and I need that to be ok

Know that I’m finding my own way

When you look at me

I found someone who’s been where I’ve been and I know they always have my back

But sometimes that’s a double-edged sword

Cause now and then when I see that look in their eyes, it’s one I recognize

And I know exactly what it’s for

I’ve held a lotta hands as a soldier said goodbye

And I’ve had to be the one to look their family in the eye…so

When you look at me

There’s a whole lot that you don’t see

I’m walking round in memories you don’t know nothing about

Sometimes I’m not ok, and I need that to be ok

Know that I’m finding my own way

When you look at me

I might catch a scent, see a face, or hear a song on the radio

And sometimes it still takes where I don’t wanna go

When you look at me

There’s a whole lot that you don’t see

I’m walking round in memories you don’t know nothing about

Sometimes I’m not ok, but I know that that’s ok

Cause I’m finding my own way

When you look at me

And I’m proud of what you see

When you look at me
