You Were There Lyrics - Babyface

1 Time passes, the world changes

2 But I'm still the same ole' kid

3 And your jokes still bring me laughter

4 As if you still were here

5 And it hurts

6 When I smile

7 'Cause my heart still remembers

8 When you were around

9 CHORUS:

10 'Cause you were there

11 When no one was

12 Just when I thought nobody cared

13 You showed me love

14 'Cause you were my friend

15 You always told me

16 And I am still here

17 Because you were there

18 So precious, small treasures

19 A time when truth was innocent

20 True friendship, was all we were after

21 A place where kids could still be kids

22 And it hurts

23 But I'm glad

24 'Cause at least I was blessed

25 To have you as my friend

26 CHORUS

27 You're my best friend

28 And there are no accidents

29 God has a plan for everyone

30 And he brought you in my life

31 To show me what a good friendship was

32 CHORUS
