If you hadn't been there, where would I be
Without your trust, love and belief?
The ups and downs we've always shared
And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there

If you hadn't been there, well, who would I be?
You always see the best in me
Your loving arms have cradled me
You held me close, and I believe–

I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
Holding my hand, showing you care
You made me dream more than I dared
And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there

Oh, you are my rock (mm)
A soft place to land
My wings, my confidence
You understand
You're willingness, beyond compare
No, I wouldn't be here, if you hadn't been there

I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
Pushing me on when I was scared
I found God and you (and God and you)
Oh, for your loving care
And for giving me love with more to spare
You made me climb atop the stairs
I wouldn't be here
I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there

I wouldn't be here–
I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
Oh, I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
Mm
