I Was There Lyrics
Come on baby, hold me close
Let me do my best to both,
Let me ride, let it rollI was there to catch a man
I thought I had him by the hand
I only had him by the gloveCome on baby, let me in
You can show yourself to him
You can show me through the doorsAnd I was there, catching air
Thought I had him by the hand
I only had him by the gloveWe was there, in the road
Picking diamonds from a tree
Heard a wolf coming throughComing through and coming hard,
Tried to leave the heat and gone
Tried to lean against the wallI'll be there, coming clean
Like a runner in the wind
Coming through the morning lightRising in, in the stone
Tried to leave the heat at home
Running through the morning dimAnd I was there to catch a man,
I thought I had him by the hand
I only had him by the gloveCome on baby, let me close
Let me do my best to both
Run through but cut closeCome on baby, let me in
You can show yourself to him
Ride the road, ride it roughYeah in the day I was gone,
Tried to leave the heat at home
Run through and run the roadI was there, coming clean
Like a runner in the wind
Coming through the morning lightYou'll be there, on the floor
Picking diamonds from a stone
Looking through the totem pole
