There You Were, duet with Marc Anthony (studio footage)

Hey, oh

I was countin' down the minutes, I was wishin' on the stars
I was prayin' for a sign and tryna beat the odds
I was dreamin' of you long before I saw your face
There you were waitin' for that day

Then you reached through the hurricane
When you, baby, you called my name

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love keeps takin' me higher
Just when all hope was gone where the hero belongs

There you were (there you were)
Oh (oh)

Must have broken into Heaven just to roll back the clouds
Were you on a mission? Were you seekin' me out?
Was I that one in a million? Was I that one sacred kiss
That you couldn't chance, you just couldn't miss?

Then you, babe, you're whisperin' through the silent tears
When you, you swept away all my fears, oh

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love keeps takin' me higher
Just when all hope was gone where the hero belongs
There you were, babe

Standin' in the middle of nowhere
With your arms wide open and you
You were the reason when there was no reason in my life
You're the reason in my life

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love is takin' me higher
Just when all hope was gone, there you were, babe (oh)

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love is takin' me higher
Just when all hope was gone where the hero belongs

There you were, oh, hero
Yeah

Like the light in the eye of the storm (mmm)
Tellin' me not to cry anymore (there you were)
Where I watched my whole world fall apart (oh baby)
Shinin' through like an angel from afar (oh, like an angel)

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love is takin' me higher
Just when all hope was gone, there you were, babe (oh)

You broke through the storm, and you turned back the night
Baby, you are the fire burnin' the midnight sky
And your love is takin' me higher
