You Were There for Me

Crystal Gayle

Every time I ever saw my dreams fall apart
I picked up all the pieces on my own
But when I felt you by my side something took my heart
For the first time in my life I wasn’t all alone

You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you, you had love to spare for me
Baby, you were there for me
When there wasn’t a prayer for me
And it was then I knew I loved you
You were there for me

I never put my faith in anybody before
But I felt your spirit reaching out to mine
I tasted magic in your kiss but I wanted even more
And that’s what you gave to me when I hit the bottom line

You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you, you had love to spare for me
Baby, you were there for me
When there wasn’t a prayer for me
And it was then I knew I loved you
You were there for me

I had all this love inside me
It took you to bring it out
Cos when I found your strength to guide me
I learned what love is all about

You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you, you had love to spare for me
Baby, you were there for me
When there wasn’t a prayer for me
And my whole life through
I promise I’ll be there for you

You were there for me
You did more than care for me
When I needed you, you had love to spare for me
Baby, you were there for me
When there wasn’t a prayer for me
And it was then I knew I loved you
You were there for me
