You Are There – Lyrics

You are there
Like the laughter of a child
When I need just a smile
Suddenly the sun shines for a while

Everywhere
Sounds of love are everywhere
And my heart sings along
Thanks to you I’ve finally got a song

’Cause you are there
You are there
You are there
Somewhere
Each time my world seems like it’s falling down
Things look up just having you around
So every night I say a prayer
Just because you’re there

Like a rainbow after rain
Like the night follows day
You’re the answer to the prayers I say

And you are there
You are there
You are there
Somewhere
No matter where I go
Or what I do
You are there
To help me see it through
So every night I say a prayer
Just because you’re there

Ooh, you are there
Oh, you are there
Somewhere
And as the years go by
We’ll stay as true
What you are for me
I’ll be for you
And every night I’ll say a prayer
Just because you’re there
Oh, you are there
Oh, you are there
Everywhere
You are there
