Lyrics of There You Were (Duet With Marc Anthony) [Studio Footage] by Jessica Simpson
verse
I was counting down the minutes
I was wishin' on the stars
I was prayin' for a sign
And tryin' to beat the odds
verse
I was dreamin' of you
Long before I saw your face
There you were
Waitin' for that day
verse
Then you reached through the hurricane
When you, baby, you called my name
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Keeps taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
Where the hero belongs
There you were
There you were
Oh, oh
verse
Must have broken into heaven
Just to roll back the clouds
Were you on a mission
Were you seeking me out
verse
Was I that one in a billion
Was I that one sacred kiss
That you couldn't chance
You just couldn't miss
verse
And you, babe, you whispered through the silent tears
When you, you swept away all my fears, oh no
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Keeps taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
Where the hero belongs
There you were, babes
verse
Standin' in the middle of nowhere
With your arms wide open
And you, you were the reason
When there was no reason in my life
You're the reason in my life
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Is taking me higher
Just when all
(Just when all)
Hope was gone
(Hope was gone)
There you were, babe
(Oh, baby)
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Is taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
Where the hero belongs
There you were
Hero
Yeah
verse
Like the light in the eye of the storm
Tellin' me not to cry anymore
(There you were)
Where I watched my whole world fall apart
(Oh, babe)
Shinin' through like on angel from afar
(Oh, like an angel)
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Is taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
There you were, babe
(Oh, baby)
chorus
You broke through the storm
And you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
Burnin' the midnight sky
chorus
And your love
Is taking me higher
