Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the world does care
Even when the world weighs on my shoulder now,
These feelings I can bare
Because I know,
That you're here,
[Chorus: x2]
I know your not far away,
Your right here
Your right here, yeah
All these thoughts I've wasted,
All these thoughts I fear,
Even when these thoughts have faded,
I still know that you're here,
So I can rest my hope in you
[Chorus: x2]
Many of times that I have felt alone,
Many of times that I have the world was crashing down upon me,
You always stood here by my side,
You were always there
[Repeat: x4]
Everywhere I go,
I know your not far away,
Your right here
Your right here, yeah

In the lonely nights... when all is dark. When fear grips my mind and makes me wonder if there is real peace beyond understanding. Lord to know you're here for me. Its a comfort.
