Lyrics

Baby, I?m sorry that I took so long to grow
But there?s so much about myself I didn?t know
I guess I must have let you down a million times or more
But through all those hungry years
When I couldn?t find the tears

You were there
Telling me to go ahead and cry
You were there
Telling me to go back out and try
And when the world
Told me that my finest dreams were castles in the air
I came running home and?.
You were there

If I could give you back a yesterday or two
I?d try to love away the pain I put you through
I just didn?t have enough of me that I could share with you
But I noticed every time
When I had a hill to climb

You were there
Giving me the power to be free
You were there
Giving me the courage to be me
And your love
Kept on shining through the darkest moments of despair
Every time I needed
You were there

Now I believe in everything
?Cause you believed in me???
You believed in me???

You were there
When nobody else would give a damn
You were there
Telling me my life was in my hands
And somehow
I can still find beauty in world that doesn?t care??
I finally made it through ?cause??..
You were there
