A promise or a dare I would jump if I knew you'd catch me Staring over the edge I can't tell if you'll be here for me
I close my eyes and make a wish Turn out the lights and take a breath Pray that when the wick is burned You would say that it's all about love
Chorus: You were there when I needed you You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open You were there when I needed you You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open
You were never here
I remember you said Love was more than your good intentions Empty boxes on the floor Things I never asked you for I pray that when the wick is burned You would say that it's all about love
[Chorus]
I can't see the promise of Excuses you fall upon I pray to God not holding on To things you've left undone
[Chorus x 2]
You were there when I You were there when I You were there when I needed you
