There You Were

I was counting down minutes. I was wishin' on the stars
I was prayin' for a sign, And tryin' to beat the odds.
I was dreamin' of you, before I saw your face.
There you were, Waitin' for that day.
Then you reached through the hurri - cane
When you baby you called my name.
You broke through the storm, And you turned back the night.
Baby you are the fire, Burnin' the midnight sky
And your love, Keeps taking me higher.
Just when all hope was gone, Where the hero belongs...
There you were.
Must have broken into heaven, Just to roll back the clouds.
Were you on a mission? Were you seekin me out?
Was I that one in a million? Was I that one sacred kiss?
That you couldn't chance, You just couldn't miss?
Then you babe, you whispered through the silent tears,
When you swept away all my fears.
You broke through the storm, And you turned back the night.
Baby you are the fire, Burnin' the midnight sky
And your love, Keeps taking me higher.
Just when all hope was gone, Where the hero belongs...
There you were.
Standin' in the middle of nowhere,
With your arms wide open and you,
You were the reason when there was no reason in my life,
D#sus4 D# (chorus in G#)
You're the reason in my life
Standin' in the middle of nowhere,
With your arms wide open and you,
You were the reason when there was no reason in my life,
D#sus4 D# (up to G#)
You're the reason in my life
