I Wanna Be There

Look at you just standing out there in the dark

Making off like we were young

See you laughing as I look in your eyes

You're having fun

Wanna take your hand teach you what I know

And I hope it's not too late

To tell you all the things I never could

And could never wait

CHORUS:

I don't wanna lose you now

Can't you just be with me somehow?

Said I wanna be there

To see the lights along the way

I wanna hold you

'Til I get the chance to say

This world is dying without us, so please don't go away

I said I wanna be there

Remember times when you would only be afraid

Now you're running down those hopes and dreams

This love could never take those crazy turns

That it always seems

I see this beauty in my eyes

Now that I'm standing on this higher ground

I turn to look for love that was never lost

And could never be found

CHORUS

If everything goes the way I planned

You'll crawl right back to me

I'm just asking you to take my hand

So we can fly away, yeah

Said I wanna be there

To see the lights along the way

I wanna hold you

'Til I get the chance to say

This world is dying without us, so please don't go away

I said I wanna be there

Yeah, with you

Said I wanna be there

I wanna be there

''cause this world is dying without us, so please don't go away

I said I wanna be there, yeah

Look at you just standing out there in the dark

Making off like we were young

See you laughing as I look in your eyes

You're having fun, yeah
