You Were There
J.R. Vautour Lyrics

You were there to catch me
The person was always there to support the singer through the ups and downs.

When I fell in love
The person was especially there to provide support and guidance when the singer fell in love.

Fell in love
The singer fell in love and felt supported by the person in their life.

The paper moon I was reaching for
The singer was chasing something that was unattainable.

Was never really there
The unattainable thing was an illusion or never existed in the first place.

When you came my sadness
The arrival of the person in the singer's life brought an end to their sadness.

Walked out the door
The sadness was replaced by happiness and hope.

Your love gave me something
The love of the person provided the singer with something to live for and be happy about.

Worth living for
The love of the person was significant and meaningful in the singer's life.

My life was broken and shattered
The singer's life was in chaos and disarray before the person's arrival.

But you made the pieces fall right in place
The person helped bring order and stability back into the singer's life.

Ev´rytime I slipped and fell
The singer had moments of weakness or failure.

Your arms were open wide
The person was always there to comfort and support the singer during difficult times.

You never turned your back on me
The person never abandoned the singer or let them down in a time of need.

And never said goodbye
The person remained a constant and supportive presence in the singer's life over time.

But now you´re right beside me
The person continues to be present and supportive in the singer's life in the present day.

When I need your love
The singer still relies on the person's love and support.

Life a leaf I was surely falling
The singer felt lost and in danger of falling apart before the person's arrival.

And you were the ground
The person provided a solid foundation for the singer and prevented them from falling apart.
