Where Were You

Calling and calling, nobody home It feels like I'm falling alone Out on an Island, SOS on the beach Watching your plane pass over me How could you miss me? With my hands in the air I thought you were listening I thought you'd be there! Where were you? When I had no one to turn to Where were you? When my worst fears were coming true Where were you? I thought you'd come to my rescue Where were you? One set of footprints, on the path I'd been on But you say you've been here all along, oh! If you really loved me, like nobody else Why was I walking through hell How could you miss me? With my hands in the air I thought you were listening Oh, I thought you'd be there Where were you? When I had no one to turn to Where were you? When my worst fears were coming true Where were you? I thought you'd come to my rescue When my prayers bounced off the ceiling I was facing down my demons When my legs gave up beneath me And I fell into your arms Where were you? When I had no one to turn to You carried me through On your shoulders, black and blue I never knew The footprints in the sand were you Were you One set of footprints, on a path I'd been on Now I know they were yours all along
