There You Were Lyrics

There You Were lyrics

I was counting down the minutes

 I was wishin' on the stars

 I was prayin' for a sign

 And tryin' to beat the odds

 I was dreamin' of you

 Long before I saw your face

 And there you were

 Waitin' for that day

 Then you reached through the hurricane

 When you, baby, you called my name

 

 Chorus:

 You broke through the storm

 And you turned back the night

 Baby you are the fire

 Burnin' the midnight sky

 And your love

 Keeps taking me higher

 Just when all hope was gone

 Where the hero belongs

 There you were

 There you were

 

 Must have broken into heaven

 Just to roll back the clouds

 Were you on a mission

 Were you seeking me out

 Was I that one in a million

 Was I that one sacred kiss

 That you couldn't chance

 You just couldn't miss

 Then you, babe, you whispered through the silent tears

 When you, you swept away all my fears

 

 (Repeat Chorus)

 

 Standin' in the middle of nowhere

 With your arms wide open

 and you, you were the reason

 when there was no reason in my life

 You're the reason in my life

 

 (Repeat Chorus 2X)

 

 Like the light in the eye of the storm

 Tellin' me not to cry anymore

 There you were

 Where I watched my whole world fall apart

 Shinin' through like on angel from afar

 

 Oh, like an angel

 

 (Repeat Chorus)
