You've heard it said a thousand times
That time can change a heart that's blind
But love can't take a chance for this to pass
It seems you've been here once before
Standing, knocking on the door
Wondering if anyone even cares

I WON'T GO AND I WON'T LEAVE
I WILL STAND AND FIGHT FOR YOU, YOU'LL SEE
THAT THERE'S NOWHERE IN THIS WORLD THAT YOU CAN HIDE
SO WHEN THE WORLD CRUMBLES BENEATH YOUR FEET
I WILL REACH MY HAND FOR YOU, YOU'LL SEE
THAT THERE'S NOTHING I WON'T DO FOR YOU TO BE CLOSER TO ME

You only get one life to live, you live like the world is yours to give
And you hold onto the things you really love
You capture every moment now
Like each moment in time is slowing down
Maybe there's hope when love begins

Don't believe the lies they tell you
The tears you cry are real and it's true
I've seen them all fall from your eyes
But you're not all alone in this life
I'll take your hand, I'll be by your side
So just let go and please don't be afraid
