"You Were There" lyrics

"You Were There"

We made the distance
Yeah, we made the day
You made all the difference
'Cause you found the way

Without your wisdom
Lord, where would we be
Lost in the wilderness
Somewhere out at sea

But you were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd always put you down
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down

You found the meaning
And helped me to see
Where I was going to
All that I could be

Without permission
You turned the key
You climbed the prison wall
Deep inside of me

You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down

You were there
Through the days of wine and madness
When I'd turn and put, put you down
You were there
Through my joys and my sadness
And you never let me down
Let me down

You were there
You were there
You were there
