You Were There

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

It's like I'm in somebody else's dream

This could not be happening to me

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

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

I know that I'll get over this for sure

I'm not the type who dreams there could be more

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

Can I take your smile home with me

Or the magic in your hand

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

Like an actor playing someone else's scene

This could not be happening to me

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

You were there
