You Should've Been There

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

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
