If You Hadn’t Been There

If You Hadn’t Been There - Dolly Parton

Lyrics by：Dolly Parton

Composed by：Dolly Parton

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 you

Well who would I be?

You've always seen

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

A soft place to land

My wings my confidence

You understand

Your 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 thank God and you

Oh for your loving care

And for giving me love

With more to spare

You made me climb

And top the stairs

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
