They Were You (from "The Fantasticks") Lyrics
They Were You - Rita Gardner
When the moon was young
When the month was may
When the stage was hung for my holiday
I saw shining lights
But I never knew
They were you
They were you
They were you
When the dance was done
When I went my way
When I tried to find rainbows far away
All the lovely lights
Seemed to fade from view
They were you
They were you
They were you
Without you near me
I can't see
When you're near me
Wonderful things come to be
Every secret prayer
Every fancy free
Everything I dared for both you and me
All my wildest dreams
Multiplied by two
They were you
They were you
They were you
They were you
They were you
They were you
