I've Been There

I've Been There - Heather Small

Nobody knows just where I've been no one but me

They're on the outside looking in no one can see

Stormy days when I was younger

In many ways they made me stronger

'Cos I've been knocked down and I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there I've been there I've been there

Seen my dreams in flames rise back up again

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there I've been there

I've been there I've been there

No one can tell me how it feels to be afraid

All of the ghosts they won't lie still they know my name

Late at night I hear them calling

But that's a place I won't be falling

'Cos I've been knocked down and I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there I've been there I've been there

Seen my dreams in flames rise back up again

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there I've been there

I've been there

And I'm telling you what I've been through

'Cos I'm still standing here it's the simple truth

When hope is nowhere to be found it always comes around

'Cos I've been knocked down and I've been lifted up

Cried a thousand tears of joy and fear

I've been there I've been there I've been there

I've been locked out and I've walked back in

I have known despair and I've walked on air

I've been there I've been there

I've been there I've been there

I've been there I've been hurt I've been down

I've been in I've been out

I've seen dreams all in flames

All around around around again I've been there

I've been hurt I've been down

I've been in I've been out

I've been sad I've been bad

I've been there I've been there I've been there

I've been there

You know I've been there

I've been there yes I've been there

You know I've been there

Gonna rise gonna rise gonna rise

'Cos I've been there
