Lyrics

[00:00.00] Atozzio--You Were There
[00:02.88]
[00:10.46]
[00:15.97] First I just wanna say to ya,
[00:20.54] It might not mean much
[00:23.78] But I realize this stuff…
[00:25.34]
[00:26.31] So dumb I was, to let my temper get the best of me
[00:32.73] And I... was wrong, though it may be too late to say anything
[00:38.99] But now that you're gone, I miss the best thing that ever happened to me
[00:47.48] You was everything I need… oooohhhh….
[00:51.88] I tried to go on
[00:55.12] Living this life without ya
[00:57.94] Everyday, it grew colder
[01:01.59] Life seem harder without ya
[01:04.88] I tried to bare the pain
[01:08.37] But accepting is just too much
[01:12.05] I'm longing to feel your touch again …. Ooooooh…
[01:16.45]
[01:17.21] Foolish pride, forced you out of my life,
[01:22.67] Being to much of a man to say I'm sorry and apologize
[01:29.34] Now I'm realizing late, I hate to push you away
[01:35.55] You were there, you were there, you were there, you were there
[01:39.97]
[01:42.90] I'll admit there's a base, I should've changed that would've made us better
[01:49.33] You could point the blame but ways put the best behind us
[01:55.94] I wish I could turn back time and make everything so right
[02:03.29] between you and I (Woah)
[02:08.75] I can't, so please, give me another chance girl
[02:15.13] You're all I need, I'll do anything girl
[02:21.24] So forgive me, 'cause I'm dying with all my selfish ways
[02:28.77] And girl, I'm not the same
[02:31.96] I'm sorry baby…
[02:34.03]
[02:34.10] Foolish pride, forced you out of my life,
[02:39.56] Being to much of a man to say I'm sorry and apologize
[02:46.28] Now I'm realizing late, I hate to push you away
[02:52.38] You were there, you were there, you were there, you were there
[02:58.70]
[02:59.20] Girl, I know
[03:02.19] You gave me every opportunity to love you so
[03:08.86] But I was so blind to see
[03:12.25] Now that I've learned
[03:15.44] Baby, it hurts
[03:18.06] And I need you in my life
[03:21.55] Need you in my life
[03:24.02]
[03:24.99] Foolish pride, forced you out of my life,
[03:30.78] Being to much of a man to say I'm sorry and apologize
[03:37.24] Now I'm realizing late, I hate to push you away
[03:43.51] You were there, you were there, you were there, you were there
[03:49.12]
[03:50.64] Foolish pride, forced you out of my life,
[03:56.30] Being to much of a man to say I'm sorry and apologize
[04:02.87] Now I'm realizing late, I hate to push you away
[04:08.68] You were there, you were there, you were there, you were there
[04:14.68]
[04:14.78] No, no, no...
[04:20.09] You were there, you were there, ohh...
[04:31.31] I'm such a fool and I lost you
[04:36.56] But all I need is another chance…
[04:39.39]
[04:39.70] Oh babe, Oh baby,
[04:43.08] Oh babe, Oh baby,
[04:46.17] Oh babe, Oh baby,
[04:49.46] Oh babe, Oh baby,
[04:52.44] Oh babe, Oh babe,
[04:56.78] Oh baby girl, ohh...
