Matthew West

I Know You're There

I think I'm over-thinking
this whole thing about believing
in something I cannot see
'Cause when I think about it
I think there's no doubt about it
I do it every single day
It's just like the air
No one knows where it comes
or where it goes
But when I breathe in
I believe again and again

So, if the whole wide world says
You're not there
Well, I still know You're there
And even if they call me crazy
I don't care
I still know You're there
And if they say there's no such thing as heaven
or a God who waits for me
I just point to the air
And I know You're there
I know You're there

I had a science teacher
Who tried to make me a believer
That evolution made this earth
But I can't give a big bang
credit for this whole thing
Life is too beautiful for that to be true
It's just like a child
A new born baby, there are no two the same
tiny toes, finger prints
And with that thought I'll rest my case

So, if the whole wide world says
You're not there
Well, I still know You're there
And even if they call me crazy
I don't care
I still know You're there
And if they say there's no such thing as heaven
or a God who waits for me
I just point to the air
And I know You're there
I know You're there

When a nation cries
When a loved one dies
When we wonder why
I still know You're there
When the nights are long
In a world gone wrong
There's still a feeling so strong
That tells me you're there
You're so undeniable
You're so unconfinable
And Your love is so reliable
And it tells me You're there

So, if the whole wide world says
You're not there
Well, I still know You're there
And even if they call me crazy
I don't care
I still know You're there
And if they say there's no such thing as heaven
or a God who waits for me
I just point to the air
I just point to the air
And I know You're there

I know You're there (x3)

If you wanna make history
You gotta stand right up
For what you believe
I believe you're there
