YOU WERE THERE
Regine Velasquez
(P. Buckle)

I guess you've heard, I guess you know
In time I might have told you but I guess I'm too slow
That's overly romantic but I know that it's real
I hope you don't mind if I say what I feel
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream
This could not be happening to me

But you were there
You were everything I'd never seen
You woke me up from this long and empty 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 feels 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 that type who dreams there could be more

But you were there
You were everything I'd never seen
You woke me up from this long and empty sleep
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
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 now...
I opened my eyes and you were there
You were there
