You Were There

Time passes, the world changes
 But I'm still the same ol' kid
 And your jokes still bring me laughter
 As if you still were here
 And it hurts
 When I smile
 'Cause my heart still remembers
 When you were around
 'Cause you were there
 When no one was
 Just when I thought nobody cared
 You showed me love
 'Cause you were my friend
 You always told me
 And I am still here
 Because you were there
 So precious, small treasures
 A time when truth was innocent
 True friendship, was all we were after
 A place where kids could still be kids
 And it hurts
 But I'm glad
 'Cause at least I was blessed
 To have you as my friend
 'Cause you were there
 When no one was
 Just when I thought nobody cared
 No, no, you showed, showed me, you showed me love
 'Cause you were my friend
 You always told me
 And I am still here, yes
 Because you were there (Yeah you were, yeah you were)
 You're my best friend, yes
 There are no accidents
 God has a plan for everyone
 And he brought you in my life
 To show me what a good friendship was
 'Cause you were there
 When no one was (When no one was, no)
 Just when I thought nobody cared (Just when I thought that nobody cared)
 You showed me love (You showed me love, you showed me love, woo!)
 'Cause you were my friend
 You always told me, yeah (You always told me)
 And I am still here (I'm still here, I'm still here)
 Because you were there (You were there, you were there, you were there, yeah yeah)
 Because you were there (You were there, you were there, you were there)
 Because you were there (You were there, you were there, you were there)
 Because you were there (You were there, you were there, you were there)
 Because you were there
