You Were There

I guess you heard I guess you know

In time I'd have told you but I guess I'm too slow

And it's overly romantic but I know that it's real

I hope you don't you 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 endless sleep

I was alone

I opened my eyes and you were there

Don't be alarmed no don't be concerned

I don't want to change things

Leave them just as they were

I mean nothing's really different

It's me who feel 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 endless 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 hair

The rain has stopped the storm has passed

Look at all the colors now the sun's here at last

I supposed that you'll be leaving but I want you to know

Part of you stays with me even after you go

Like an actor playing someone else's scene

This could not be happening to me

But you were there and 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 no I'm not alone I'm not alone

I opened my eyes and you were there

You were there
