Dolly Parton If You Hadn T Been There Lyrics

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
