When I Had You

Words and Music by John Ryan and Billy Brown

Performed by Daniel O'Donnell

If all of the years since I left you Could be turned back and relived again I'd know this time never to doubt you Or turn away when you whisper my name In all of the time that I wandered Lost from your love's gentle care Sure that I knew where the road led But only to find nothing there When I had you I had something to hold on to Someone to talk to, to see me through

If I'd seen then what I see clearly now I'd never have stopped loving you Well I thought I could find my own way And show you how it could be done But I've seen and I've tried all the others Now I know there can be only one Now I have you I have something to hold on to Someone to talk to, to see me through If I'd seen then what I see clearly now I'd never have stopped loving you.
