You Were There

We made the distance Yeah we made the day. You made all the difference 'Cause you found the way. Without your wisdom Lord where would we be Lost in the wilderness Somewhere out at sea. But you were there Through the days of wine and madness When I'd always put you down. You were there Through my joys and my sadness And you never let me down. You found the meaning And helped me to see Where I was going to All that I could be. Without permission You turned the key. You climbed the prison wall Deep inside of me. You were there Through the days of wine and madness When I'd turn and put, put you down. You were there Through my joys and my sadness And you never let me down. You were there Through the days of wine and madness When I'd turn and put, put you down. You were there Through my joys and my sadness And you never let me down. Let me down. You were there. You were there. You were there --- You Were There - Eric Clapton
