and there was you lyrics

No more than just a broken heart ago
I made a promise to myself I'd never trust someone again
Judging form my rough and rocky past
I wrote love off as just a game a fool will play and never win
And I felt certain I was right 'til I turned a corner in the night

And there was you
Like an angel you just suddenly appeared
Sent to me with a love so true
That it could make up for the lies and wasted years
Now I see there were other loves I knew
And there was you

I've heard the words "I love you" said in vain so many times
I quit believing that someone could really care
And after one too many dead end roads
I found myself stumbling through the dark and down to my last prayer
I didn't know what else to try 'til I raised my head and opened up my eyes

And there was you
Like an angel you just suddenly appeared
Sent to me with a love so true
That it could make up for the lies and wasted years
And now I see there were other loves I knew
And there was you

There was you with a love so true
That it could make up for the lies and wasted years
And now I see there were other loves I knew
And there was you

Oh, there were other loves and there was you
There was you, girl
And there was you, oh baby, there was you
