You Were There Lyrics

Saw a man?s home, a box made of cardboard
Frozen to the bone, can?t take much more
He says Lord I need help here, send me a strong hand
To lift me from the street, help me to stand

I?ve been forgotten, been forsaken
Poisoned by a bottle I could not shake it
I?ve been passed over, been rejected

And I?m afraid I?ll never feel
The warmth of summer come again
Man I am helpless, I?m freezing
You were there, you were there

I saw a sick man on a sick bed
Scorned by the world like he had two heads
He says I?m a man here dying a cruel death
I'm cut off from the world, man it was so sad

He was suffering, he was ailing
Tortured by his fate, his body was failingThe Call - You Were There - http://motolyrics.com/the-call/you-were-there-lyrics.html
He says I?m an outcast, left defenseless

And I?m afraid that I?ll be dead
Before the summer comes again
I?ve been rejected, man I am dying
You were there, you were there

Saw a rich man alone in a dark house
A prison made of gold he could not break out
He says my life is aimless, it just seems pointless
Boredom truly kills, man I am hopeless

I got diamonds, I got houses
I got silver clouds and silver spoons to match it
I?ve come up empty, man I am desperate

And I never want to feel
The warmth of summer come again
I?ll be forgotten, my life is over
You were there, you were there
You were there, Lord, you were there
