Lyrics And There You Were - Billy Eckstine

And There You Were

I asked for one thing
And there you were
I asked for soft wings
And there you were
My world was lonely
My pleasures few
One magic moment
My world was new
For there you were in the sign
And the years of desire in my heart
Were consumed by the fire in thy heart
And the magic of you
I ask for summer
I pray for spring
A touch of gladness
A song to sing
And there you were in the night
And the music was more than sublime
We were lost in the rhythm of time
And the love that was new
I asked for wisdom
For love as wise
I found the answer
Within your eyes
Surely, you never
Could never beyond forever
I wanted heaven and there you were
