TRACE ADKINS
"And There Was You"
(Mark Nesler / Tom Shapiro)

No more than just a broken heart ago
I made a promise to myself
I'd never trust someone again
Judging from my rough and rocky past
I wrote off love as just a game
A fool will play and never win
And I felt certain I was right
Until I turned a corner in the night

[Chorus:]
And there was you
Like an angel you just suddenly appeared, sent to me
With a love so true, that it could make up for the lies and wasted years
And now I see, there were other loves I knew
And there was you

I've heard the words "I love You" said in vain
So many times I quit believin'
That someone could really care
And after one too many dead end roads
I found myself stumblin' through
The dark down to my last prayer
I didn't know what else to try
Till I raised my head and opened my eyes

[Chorus:]
And there was you
Like an angel you just suddenly appeared, sent to me
With a love so true, that it could make up for the lies and wasted years
And now I see, there were other loves I knew
And there was you

[Refrain:]
With a love so true
That it could make up for the lies and wasted years
And now I see, there were other loves I knew
And there was you

[Outro:]
Oh, there were other loves
And there was you
And there was you, baby
And there was you
Oh, baby, there was you
