I Was There

I was there when love came around with sweet warm kisses

I was there when it burned into desire

I was there when it ran into a raging river

And then turned into a runaway wild fire.



I was there, I was there

When love came around, I was there

And one thing for certain

I did all the hurtin' at love's final curtain, I was there.



I was there when love came in like a living tornado

I was there when it blew out of control

I was there when something quickly turned into nothing

Just a hopeless helpless dream gone up in smoke.



I was there, I was there

When love came around, I was there

And one thing for certain

I did all the hurtin' at love's final curtain, I was there.
