You weren't there

You weren't there to catch me
when I fell to the ground
and I looked everywhere
but, you were nowhere to be found

you weren't there to keep me warm
all those cold and lonley nights
and you weren't there to tell me
that everything would be alright

you weren't there to save me
when my light started to fade
and you weren't there to see it,
but I kept that promise that I made

you weren't there to hear me
or to even watch me dance
and you weren't there to watch it,
the day I had my chance

you weren't there to say
all those wise and useful words
you just left me there to hear
all kinds of stuff I shouldnt have heard

you weren't there to watch me fail
or to see me stand up tall...
after I got back on my feet.
yea, you kinda missed it all
