You Were There

Was it in the real world

Or was it in a dream?

Was it just a note

In some eternal theme?

Was it accidental

Or accurately planned?

How could I hesitate

Knowing that my fate

Led me by the hand?

You were there

I saw you and my heart stopped beating

You were there

And in that first enchanted meeting

Life changed it's tune

The stars and moon

Came near to me

Dreams that I dreamed, like magic

Seemed to be clear to me

Dear to me

You were there

Your eyes looked into mine and faltered

Everywhere

The color of the whole world altered

False became true

My universe tumbled in two

The earth became Heaven

How could we explain it?

The spark and then the fire

How it upped the total of our hearts desire?

Maybe some magician

A thousand years ago

Wove us a subtle spell

So that we could tell

So that we could know

You were there

I saw you and my heart stopped beating

You were there

And in that first enchanted meeting

False became true

My universe tumbled in two

The earth became Heaven

For you were there
