You Were There

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I guess you've heard I guess you know In time, I might have told you But I guess I'm too slow That's overly romantic But I know that it's real I hope you don't mind if I say what I feel [Pre-Chorus] It's like I'm in somebody else's dream This could not be happening to me [Chorus] But you were there You were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and empty sleep I was alone I opened my eyes and you were there [Verse 2] Don't be alarmed No, don't be concerned I don't wanna change things Leave them just as they were I mean, nothing's really different It's me who feels strange I'm always lost for words when someone mentions your name [Pre-Chorus] I know that I'll get over this for sure I'm not the type who dreams there could be more [Chorus] But you were there You were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and empty sleep I was alone I opened my eyes and you were there [Bridge] Can I take your smile home with me Or the magic in your hand [Verse 3] The rain has stopped The storm has past Look at all the colors Now the sun's here at last I suppose that you'll be leaving But I want you to know Part of you stays with me even after you're gone [Pre-Chorus] Like an actor playing someone else's scene This could not be happening to me [Chorus] But you were there You were everything I'd never seen You woke me up from this long and endless sleep I was alone I opened my eyes and oh, no, no, no, no, no No, I'm not alone I opened my eyes and you were there [Outro] You were there
