That only heaven can make
I pray to God everyday
That you keep that smile
Yeah, you are my dream
There's not a thing I won't do
I'll give my life up for you
And baby, everything that I have is yours
You will never go cold or hungry
I'll be there when you're insecure
Let you know that you're always lovely
Girl, 'cause you are
The only thing that I got right now
One day when the sky is falling
I'll be standing right next to you
Right next to you
Nothing will ever come between us
'Cause I'll be standing right next to you
Right next to you
If you had my child
You would make my life complete
Just to have your eyes on a little me
That'd be mine forever
And baby, everything that I have is yours
You will never go cold or hungry
I'll be there when you're insecure
Let you know that you're always lovely
Girl, 'cause you are
The only thing that I got right now
One day when the sky is falling
I'll be standing right next to you
Right next to you
Nothing will ever come between us
I'll be standing right next to you
Right next to you
We're made for one another (one another)
Me and you (and you, and you, and you)
And I have no fear
I know we'll make it through
One day when the sky is falling
I'll be standing right next to you
Oh oh oh oh
One day when the sky is falling (when the sky is falling, falling)
I'll be standing right next to you (right next to you)
Right next to you (right next to you)
Nothing will ever come between us (nothing will ever)
I'll be standing right next to you
Right next to you (right next to you)

Oh yeah
Stand by my side, side, side
When the sky falls down
I'll be there, I'll be there
You've got that smile
That only heaven can make
I pray to God everyday
To keep you forever
