You Are Always There
I built my life around a dream
They said could not come true.
They laughed out loud when they found out
I’d set my heart on you.
It’s good to see their faces now.
It’s nice to feel them stare.
For when they see me nowadays,
You are always there.
If I should live a thousand years ---
As long as I can dream ---
If I can always touch your heart
And make your blue eyes gleam,
I’ll know, for sure, you came along
As answer to my prayers,
For, I can turn around and see,
You are always there.
When I need a friendly face,
You are always there.
When I need a fond embrace,
You are always there.
You are always there
When life seems so unfair.
I’m glad when each new morning comes
You are always there.
