You Were Always There For Me

You were always there for me.

The leaves fall outside slowly
where we used to walk
There's beauty all around me
but I just don't want to talk

My friends want to come over,
but I just don't have the time
They leave messages for me to read
and tho I see them, I am blind

Oh, late at night, I feel so empty
so lost and all alone
I'm used to having you beside me
and my heart, it had a home

What can I do now, to take
all this pain away?
You were always there to comfort me
in your own special way

Chorus

Oh, you left me too soon,
you left me way too soon
I still can't sleep in our room
Cos, you were always there for me
you were always there for me
Now what am I supposed to do?
I'm drowning here without you
You always helped me with my pain
You made me see the sun again
You were always there for me


I remember everything about you
everything you ever said
I remember all those stormy nights
we shared together in our bed
I used to watch you sleeping
and I'd gently touch your face
Now your place beside me is empty
no one left here to embrace

Chorus 
Oh you left me too soon...


So many years have passed now
since you have passed away
It still feels like not so long ago
so many things left to say
I dream about the day, when
you'll be back home to stay
I'll be here waiting patiently,
cos you were always here for me

Chorus repeat
fade
