You Were There

I sit here and wonder
about the world around me,
things change so quickly
and people come and go.
Life is like a river,
it's journey unwinding,
until is reaches
a distant shore.

**CHORUS**

I've come a long, long way
down a path of resistance,
a path full of thorns.
Down a path of forgiveness,
a path full of gold.
And at the end of each path,
you were there for me.


In the still of the darkness,
I hear the gentle sound
of a song flowing softly
across this town.
Life is like a melody,
it's journey unwinding,
until it reaches
a distant soul.


A new day arises,
the sun shines so bright.
Birds chirp for joy,
and flowers bloom in sight.
Life is like a promise,
it's journey unwinding,
until it reaches
a distant love.


**CHORUS**

I've come a long, long way
down a path of resistance,
a path full of thorns.
Down a path of forgiveness,
a path full of gold.
And at the end of each path,
you were there for me.

... you were always there, waiting for me.....
