You Should've Been There

(m. crenshaw, l. preston) You should've been there as the sun went down Colors ran all across the ground Then a thousand stars were spinning all around Do you care...you should've been there I saved you place right by my side And waited there in the candlelight But the only friend I had in sight was an empty chair You should've been there Chorus: Ran into some people we used to know They were going somewhere I didn't want to go So I kept on waiting for just a little bit more Not getting anywhere...you should've been there Then I thought I saw you walking by into town Into the crowd I went chasing you down When I grabbed your arm...she spun around A stranger glared...you should've been there You should've been there There's always so much to see in this old town Don't you agree But then again I never said I'd be anywhere You should've been there I saved you a place right by my side And waited there in the candlelight But the only friend I had in sight was an empty chair You should've been there Chorus
