YOU WERE THERE
All my life, every day; you were there when I'd need you
All the time, I just knew; you'd be there
And you'd see me through
I've always known, I'm not alone . . .
You were so strong; you'd pick me up when I'd fall down
So I can see all your strength is in me
Although I try, it's hard to say goodbye
To someone whose loved me all of my life
And when I'm sad, because you're not there
I'll still see your love everywhere
Everything that I did you'd applaud; you were right there watching me
As I grew, sharing joy and my heartache, too
I always knew, that I had you . . .
Now I'm so strong; I picked you up when you fell down
I've learned to see just how strong I could be
Although I try, it's hard to say goodbye
To someone whose loved me all of my life
And when I'm sad, because you're not there
I'll still see your love everywhere
When you are gone, I'll say a prayer
And I'll remember how you were there
