You Were There For Me (English Version)

I remember when I was young Life was perfect and sweet Mom could tell when something was wrong She'd wipe the tears off my cheeks Dad was working sometimes in pain To keep us fed seven days a week You were there for me, (there for me) There for me Showing endless love You were there for me Always there for me But I was self-absorbed And I want you to know I'm sorry I couldn't see it before I was angry at the world (I was so angry at the world) Couldn't tell where I fit in (I couldn't tell where I fit in) All your teachings and wise words (All of your teachings and wise words) Would get right under my skin And you would worry time and time again From the hospice, always waiting You were there for me, (there for me) There for me Showing endless love You were there for me Always there for me But I was self-absorbed And I want you to know I'm sorry I couldn't see it before Thanks to you I have become Who I was meant to be I wish to hold you Spend time with you Tell you how much you mean to me I want to be there for you now But it's too late You're gone You were there for me, (there for me) There for me Showing endless love You were there for me Always there for me But I was self-absorbed And I want you to know Really need you to know I'm sorry I couldn't see it before I'm sorry I couldn't say it before Ooh, I love you
