There You Were

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 baby

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 [x2]

Must have broke into heaven

Just to roll back the clouds

Were you on a mission

Were you seekin' 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 whispered through the silent tears

When you, you swept away all my fears

[Repeat chorus]

There you were, babe

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

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

There you were

[Repeat chorus]

There you were
