"I Was There" lyrics

I was there when there was sadness in your eyes
And the future looked too dark to face alone
I was there to change your tears to laughter
There to make your heart
Believe in the happy ever after

I was there to bring you a daily bouquet
To make the world your playground
If you wanted it that way
But when he came back and wanted you
I did not have a prayer
He just smiled and you forgot that I was there

(I was there) when there was sadness such sadness in your eyes
(I was there) All alone
(I was there) I was there to change your tears to laughter
There to make your heart
Believe in the happy ever after

I was there to bring you a daily bouquet
To make the world your playground
If you had just wanted it that way
But when he came back and wanted you
I didn't have a prayer
He just smiled and you forgot that I was there
