You Were There

I can see You In the eyes of a child I can see You In the sunrise & in the clouds But I wish I knew then What I know right now And if I could do one thing I'd go back and show myself how You were there At each broken heart You were there When my world was falling apart You were there When I thought I let you down You were there Just like You're here now You were there And You're still here You were there Always there I can feel You In the melody of these strings I can feel You On every run when it's just You and me I couldn't feel You then But I sure feel You now So I will use this voice To tell the whole world how You were there At each broken heart You were there When my world was falling apart You were there When I thought I let you down You were there Just like You're here now You were there And You're still here You were there You were there in my addiction You were there in each affliction You were there when depression almost won the war You were there in the foster home You were there when I was all alone You were there when they took my innocence away You were there when we miscarried You were there in our failed marriage You were there when I put my child in the grave You were there Always there You were always there Through all the pain And all the hate And all the times I said You were to blame You were there
