You're always there for me

Whenever I fall

Whenever I'm in need

You always know when to call

When I've come to my ends

I know I can depend on your loving me

Your touching me

Your constant faith and trust in me



And how can I tell you

How I love you so

Oh darling I just wanna tell you

That you're my pride and joy



Through thick and the thin

You were the strength for me

You wouldn't let me give in

At the end of the road

Somehow I've always known

That your trust in me

Your love in me

Got me to believe in me



You are my first and last thought of the day

You are my hearbeat

Without you I can't breathe

I can't imagine me without you in my life

You are my one soul inspiration

Without you I'll just die



Hook repeat to fade
