You Were There

VERSE 1
There’s nothing like the sparkle
I see each day in your eye
Just knowing your warm gentle touch
Was always close by

PRE-CHORUS 1
On a stormy night
On the rocky shores
If and when I’m just about to fall

CHORUS 1
Most people would
Drive along, change the song, pass you by
Grab a phone, act like you nowhere
But you were there
Yes, you were there

VERSE 2
When I hear my phone ringing
I look down and see your face
‘Specially in time of need
I can count on you be in your place

PRE-CHORUS 2
On a sinking raft
In a smoke-filled room
Times when I shrink to 2 foot tall

CHORUS 2
Most people would
Drive along, change the song, pass you by
Grab a phone, act like you nowhere
Most people would
Hang you up, give you up, turn blind eye
Move along, run and just not care
But you were there
Yes you were there

BRIDGE
Like the cream floats to the top
You’re the cream of the crop
In my universe
I’ll always know you were there

CHORUS 3
Most people would
Drive along, change the song, pass you by
Grab a phone, act like you nowhere
Most people would
Hang you up, give you up, turn blind eye
Move along, run and just not care
But you were there
Yes you were there
You were there
Yes, you were there
REPEAT OUT…
