MICHAEL JACKSON - You Were There lyrics

rate me

(tribute to sammy davis jr.)<br><br>You were there, before we came.<br>You took the hurt, you took the shame.<br>They built the walls to block your way.<br>You beat them down.<br>You won the day.<br>It wasn't right, it wasn't fair.<br>You taught them all.<br>You made them care.<br>Yes, you were there, and thanks to you<br>There's now a door we all walk through.<br>And we are here, for all to see --<br>To be the best that we can be.<br>Yes, I am here....<br>Because you were there.
