You Were There |
| Saw a man’s home, a box made of cardboard |
| Frozen to the bone, can’t take much more |
| Says Lord I need help here, send me a strong hand |
| To lift me from the street, help me to stand |
| I’ve been forgotten, been forsaken |
| Poisoned by a bottle I could not shake it |
| I’ve been passed over, been rejected |
| And I’m afraid I’ll never feel |
| The warmth of summer come again |
| Man I am helpless, I’m freezing |
| You were there |
| You were there |
| I saw a sick man on a sick bed |
| Scorned by the world like he had two heads |
| He says I’m a man here dying a cruel death |
| I’m cut off from the world, man it was so sad |
| He was suffering, he was ailing |
| Tortured by his fate, his body was failing |
| He says I’m an outcast, left defenceless |
| And I? |
| m afraid that I’ll be dead |
| Before the summer comes again |
| I’ve been rejected, man I am dying |
| You were there |
| You were there |
| Saw a rich man alone in a dark house |
| A prison made of gold he could not break out |
| Says my life is aimless, it just seems pointless |
| Boredom truly kills, man I am hopeless |
| I got diamonds, I got houses |
| I got silver clouds and silver spoons to match it |
| I’ve come up empty, man I am desperate |
| And I never want to feel |
| The warmth of summer come again |
| I’ll be forgotten, my life is over |
| You were there |
| You were there |
| You were there |
| Lord, you were there |
