Rachel Alejandro
You Were There

[Verse 1: Rachel Alejandro]
I guess you heard, I guess you know
In time, I'd have told you but I guess I'm too slow
It's overly romantic but I know that it's real
I hope you don't mind if I say what I feel
It's like I'm in somebody else's dream
This could not be happening to me

[Chorus: Rachel Alejandro]
But you were there
And 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 you were there

[Verse 2: Hajji Alejandro]
Don't be alarmed, no, don't be concerned
I don't want to 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
I know that I'll get over this for sure
I'm not the type who dreams there could be more

[Chorus: Rachel Alejandro & Hajji Alejandro, Rachel Alejandro]
But you were there
And 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 you were there
[Bridge: Rachel Alejandro & Hajji Alejandro]
Oh, can I take your smile home with me? (Oh)
Or the magic in your hair? (In your hair)

[Verse 3: Rachel Alejandro, Hajji Alejandro, Rachel Alejandro & Hajji Alejandro]
The rain has stopped, the storm has passed
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 go
Like an actor playing someone else's scene (Someone else's scene)
This could not be happening to me

[Chorus: Rachel Alejandro, Hajji Alejandro, Rachel Alejandro & Hajji Alejandro]
But you were there (And you were there)
You were everything I'd never seen (I'd never seen)
You woke me up from this long and endless sleep (You woke me up in endless sleep)
I was alone (I was alone)
I opened my eyes

[Outro: Rachel Alejandro, Hajji Alejandro, Rachel Alejandro & Hajji Alejandro]
And no, I'm not alone
No, not alone (You're not alone)
I opened my eyes and you were there (You were there)
I opened my eyes and you were there
