I Was There Lyrics

I was there, I was there, when love crashed and burned,
I was there.
I was there when love came around with sweet, warm kisses.
I was there when it burned into desire.
I was there when it ran into a raging river,
And then turned into a runaway wild fire.
I was there, I was there, when love came around,
I was there.
And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final curtain, I was there.
INSTRUMENTAL
I was there when love came in like a living tornado.
I was there when it blew out of control.
I was there when something quickly turned into nothing.
Just a hopeless, helpless dream gone up in smoke.
I was there, I was there, when love came around,
I was there.
And one thing's for certain, throughout all the hurtin',
At love's final curtain, I was there.
I was there, I was there, when love came around,
I was there.
And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final curtain, I was there.
I was there, I was there, when love came around,
I was there.
And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final curtain, I was there. (song fades out)
