If You Hadn’t Been There

If you hadn't been there, where would I be? Without your trust, love, and belief The ups and downs we've always shared And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there If you hadn't been you, well, who would I be? You've always seen the best in me Your loving arms have cradled me You held me close, and I believe I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there Holding my hand, showing you care You made me dream more than I dared (ooh) And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there Oh, you are my rock (mm), a soft place to land My wings, my confidence, you understand Your willingness beyond compare No, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there Pushing me on when I was scared (ooh) I thank God and you (thank God and you), oh, for your loving care And for giving me love with more to spare You made me climb and top the stairs I wouldn't be here, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there Oh, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there Mm
