You Were There (tribute to Sammy Davis Jr.) |
You were there, before we came |
You took the hurt, you took the shame |
They built the walls to block your way |
You beat them down |
You won the day |
It wasn’t right, it wasn’t fair |
You taught them all |
You made them care |
Yes, you were there |
-= =- |
And thanks to you |
There’s now a door we all walk through |
And we are here, for all to see |
To be the best that we can be |
Yes, I am here |
Because you were there |
