[Disney] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand Hold it tight

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always

Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on,
Now and forever more

Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say




You'll be in my heart, always
Always

It's hard losing a parent but they will be there in spirit and help you through the tough times

@Enlightenedlikebuddha

Sorry to hear that. Losing a parent is not easy. I am also very attached to my parents. And this COVID-19 is actually a sign from God to wake up the human race.

Lily Collins (Phil's daughter) said he wrote this song as a lullaby for her. That's freaking sweet.

@aliciak1959

And won the Academy Award too!

@Akatsukileader9

So what you're saying is that Phil Collins is Hector Rivera
