You Should've Been There

You should've been there as the sun went down 
colors ran all across the ground 
Then a thousand stars were spinning all around 
Do you care...you should've been there 
I saved you place right by my side 
and waited there in the candlelight 
But the only friend I had in sight was an empty chair 
You should've been there 
chorus: 
Ran into some people we used to know 
They were going somewhere I didn't want to go 
So I kept on waiting for just a little bit more 
not getting anywhere...you should've been there 
Then I thought I saw you walking by into town 
Into the crowd I went chasing you down 
When I grabbed your arm...she spun around 
a stranger glared...you should've been there 
You should've been there 
there's always so much to see in this old town 
Don't you agree 
But then again I never said I'd be anywhere 
You should've been there 
I saved you a place right by my side 
and waited there in the candlelight 
But the only friend I had in sight was an empty chair 
You should've been there 
chorus
