I Was There - The Statler Brothers

When she bought her first heels I was there

When she combed those last pigtails from her hair

When she wore her sister’s dress to the prom I must confess

When the last dance was danced I was there

When I first fell in love she was there I can still remember when and where

But life gives and takes and we all have our breaks

When she broke her first heart I was there

When she walked down the aisle I was there

When she took the vows to always love and care

With dignity and grace I quietly took my place

With the friends of the bride I was there

When they had their first fight and she called in the night

Though I knew it wasn’t right I was there

And when he left her again and she needed a friend

Like a fool I’ve always been I was there

The last time we met he was there and whatever he thinks I don’t care

I loved her first and he loved her worst I know she told me so when I was there

I know she told me so when I was there
