Have You Ever Really Been There?

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?

And, did you ever sort of wonder-
What kind of God would let him die?
And, did you ever hear the thunder-
Get down on your knees and cry?

Have you ever prayed that time would fly?
«Cause you wanted to run out of here?

Have you ever called the number 9-1-1?
Have you ever had to go to prison?
Did you ever turn the other cheek?
Did you ‘shut up’? Did you stop and listen?

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?
Have you ever watch it slip away?
Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever considered-
I’d rather live life living, than live life dead?
Have you ever lived a bad dream….
And you weren’t even asleep in bed?

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?
Have you ever watch it slip away?
Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever seen a car swerve
Just in time to save your soul?
Have you ever seen a car roll
In the river, and out of control?

Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever loved and lost?
Have you ever lost it all?
Have you ever sat and sobbed,
Coming up against a’ brick wall?

Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Put on your shoes in the morning-
And, never let them go.
It’s better to live the life you live
Than one you’d rather not know.

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?

How could you really know?
It’d be the very, very last time-
Honey, it’s time to just let go.

The trouble looking right back at you?
Could you have done it better?
What else could you do?

Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever been free
And you looked right through the bars?
Have you ever been pure,
No ghosts, no grudges, nor cigars?

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?

Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever had to tell a story
And the people had no ears?
Have you ever had a vision
No hates, no fights, no fears?

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?

Have you ever lost some one so dear?

It’s why I’m here
It’s why I’ve got
The best of friends
That walk the talk

It’s why I smile,
It’s not so bad.
It’s why I share
The life I’d had.

It’s why I sing,
It’s why I dance.
It’s why there’s faith
I understand.

I’m not giving up
I’m living life grand
I’m not getting ugly
I’m singing with the band.

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?
Have you ever watch it slip away?
Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Have you ever wondered how you got here?
Ever wondered where you’re going?
And, when you hear the thunder,
I love you is worth knowing…..

Have you ever really been there?
Have your ever wondered why you’re here?
Have you ever watch it slip away?
Have you ever lost some one so dear?

Never, never, never give up.
