Say, hear your troubles got
you feelin' down?
All your faith is gone,
Oh, know the damage
broken hearts can do
But things will change,
You're not alone,
Though it's hard for you to believe,

Lift your head,
Take my hand,
I'll dry your eyes and
gotta keep on tryin'

All I want is for you to know,
I'll be there, I won't let you go,
Carry you, set your on your way,
Heal your wings help you
fly, I will be there

You don't have to take it alone

You with your heavy heart,
come rest your head,
I'll comfort you,
Oh, know it seems the
hard times never end,
Things will change,

(things will change)
You're not alone, (not alone)
Though it's hard for you to believe,
Lift your head, (lift your head)
Take my hand, (take my hand)
I'll dry your eyes and
gotta keep on fightin'

All I want is for you to know,
I'll be there, I won't let you go,
Carry you, set your on your way,
Heal your wings help you
fly, I will be there

Don't forget I'm always there

No need to take it alone,
Don't take it alone,
Don't take it,
Gonna be right there,
No need to take it alone,
Don't take it alone,
Don't take it alone again

All I want is for you to know,
I'll be there, I won't let you go,
Carry you, set your on your way,
Heal your wings help you
fly, I will be there

Don't forget I'm always there

No need to take it alone,
Don't take it alone,
Don't take it,
Gonna be right there,
No need to take it alone,

Don't take it alone,
Don't take it alone again
