I Was There

(album: Love Story - 1971)

I was there when there was sadness in your eyes
And the future looked too dark to face alone
I was there to change your tears to laughter
There to make your heart believe in the "happy ever after"

Yes, I was there to bring you a daily bouquet
To make the world your playground
If you wanted it that way
But when he came back and wanted you
I didn't have a prayer
He just smiled and you forgot that I was there

Yes, I was there to bring you a daily bouquet
To make the world your playground
If you wanted it that way
But when he came back and wanted you
I didn't have a prayer
He just smiled and you forgot that I was there
He just smiled and you forgot that I was there
