Didn't they say that I would make a mistake?
Didn't they say you were gonna be trouble?
People told me you were too much to take.
Couldn't see it,
I didn't wanna know.
I let you in and you let me down.
You messed me up and you jerked my life around.
Left me feeling I had nowhere to go.
I was alone,
I was out to know that.
You'll be there when I needed somebody.
You'll be there, the only one could help me.
I had a picture of you in my mind.
Never knew it would be so wrong.
Why'd it take me so long just to find
the friend that was there all along?
You'll be there when I needed somebody.
You'll be there, the only one could help me.
I was lost and alone,
trying to grow.
Making my way down that long winding road.
Had no
reason or rhyme to write your song out of time.
And there you were standing in front
of my eye.
How could I miss such a hope
to let go of love and break all of the rules?
Girl,
when you walked out that door,
left a hole in my heart.
And now I know for sure.
You'll be there when I need.
Girl, you're all that I need.
And I wanna thank you, lady.
You're the words that I read.
You're my life at sea.
And your love is all that I need.
You're the song that I sing.
Girl, you're my everything.
And I wanna thank you, lady.
You're the reason I live.
All the joy that you give.
And your love is all that I need.
No matter what they tell us.
No matter what they do.
No matter what they teach us.
What we believe is true.
No matter what they call us.
However they attack.
No matter where they take us.
We'll find our own way back.
I can't deny what I believe.
I can't be what I'm not.
I know I'll last forever.
I'm not on that road.
If only tears were laughter.
If only night was day.
If only prayers were answer.
Then we would feel God's sake.
And I will give you safe and strong.
Shelter from the storm.
No
matter where it's found.
Our dream is being born.
I know I'll last.
I know I'll last.
I know I'll last.
I know I'll last forever.
I'm gonna tell you.
I've got something to say.
I'm gonna put this dream in motion.
Never let nothing stand in my way.
When the going gets tough.
The tough get going.
I'll do anything.
Do the things that love is do.
Wanna hold you.
Gotta get it through to you.
When the going gets tough.
The tough get going.
I climb every mountain.
I swim every sea.
I reach for the heavens.
Can I touch you?
Can I touch you?
Wanna hold you.
Can I touch you?
