[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream
This could not be happening to me

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Don't be alarmed
No, don't be concerned
I don't wanna 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
[Pre-Chorus]
I know that I'll get over this for sure
I'm not the type who dreams there could be more

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Can I take your smile home with me
Or the magic in your hand

[Verse 3]
The rain has stopped
The storm has past
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're gone

[Pre-Chorus]
Like an actor playing someone else's scene
This could not be happening to me
[Chorus]
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 oh, no, no, no, no, no
No, I'm not alone
I opened my eyes and you were there

[Outro]
You were there
