IT WAS YOU
Ashley Ballard - (with So Plush) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can see that you've always been there for me.
To tell the truth (truth), don't know what I'd do
without you (you), half of my dreams would not come true.
(You are the one) that I have hoped for.
(Now my life) means so much more.
(Now we can be) together forever.
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you.
I always knew that you'd be right here for me.
And it was you who stood with me when the skies are blue.
And it was you who stood by my side. It was you.
Since the day you came in my life
I knew then that you'd be someone right by my side.
Then you prove you're a friend to me.
With my heart forever you will always be.
(You are the one (the one)) that I have hoped for.
(Now my life) means so much more. (Means so much to me)
(Now we can be) together forever.
(Just you and me) there for each other. (I knew it was you)
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you. (Show me in you a friend)
I always knew that you'd be right here for me. (Be right here for me)
And it was you who stood with me when the skies are blue. (When the skies were blue)
And it was you who stood by my side. (I knew) It was you.
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you. (Who showed me I got a friend)
I always knew that you'd be right here for me. (You'd be right here for me)
And it was you who stood with me when the skies are blue. (When the skies were blue)
And it was you who stood by my side.
It was you who's always right by my side.
I just can't do it; you helped me through it.
We're friends forever, like best friends should be.
You'll always be (dog child, something) a special part of me.
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you. (I'm glad I found my friend)
I always knew that you'd be right here for me. (It was you. It was you.)
And it was you who stood with (who stood with me) me when the skies are blue.
And it was you who stood by my side. It was you. (I knew it was you)
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you. (Show me baby)
I always knew (I got a friend) that you'd be right here for me. (Be right here for me)
And it was you (baby) who stood with me when the skies are blue. (When the skies were blue)
And it was you who stood by my side. It was you. (I knew it was you)
It was you showed me all I've got and I always knew that you'd be right there.
And it was you stood by feeling skies were blue.
And it was you I knew that I could count on.
It was you who showed me I got a friend in you. (I got a friend)
I always knew that you'd be right here for me. (It was)
And it was you who stood with me when the skies are blue. (I got a friend)
And it was you who stood by my side. It was you.
You are a friend to me, it was you.
