I love this song. If you dont already know, it’s by Southern Sons, a popular australian pop/rock band in the early 90s. Where were you at that time? I was a cute, chubby teenager in secondary school back then:).
Here’s the lyrics. You should be able to find the music video in Youtube easily.
| You Were There Lyrics |  |
|
| I guess you’ve heard, I guess you know In time I’d have told you, but I guess I’m too slow. It’s overly romantic but I know that it’s real I hope you don’t you mind if I say what I feel. It’s like I’m in somebody else’s dream, This could not be happening to me.[Chorus:] But you were there, and you were everything I’d never seen. You woke me up from this long and endless sleep. I was alone. I opened my eyes and you were there. Don’t be alarmed, no don’t be concerned. I don’t want to change things leave them just as they were. I mean nothing’s really different It’s me who feel strange. I’m always lost for words when someone mentions your name. I know that I’ll get over this for sure I’m not the type who dreams there could be more.[Chorus:] But you were there, and you were everything I’d never seen. You woke me up from this long and endless sleep. And I was alone. I opened my eyes and you were there. Can I take your smile home with me, or the magic in your hair? The rain has stopped, the storm has passed Look at all the colors now the sun’s here at last. I suppose that you’ll be leaving but I want you to know Part of you stays with me even after you go. Like an actor playing someone else’s scene This could not be happening to me. But you were there, and you were everything I’d never seen. You woke me up from this long and endless sleep. I was alone. I opened my eyes and no, no,I’m not alone, no, I’m not alone. I opened my eyes and you were there. |
