A near-death car crash Drew us together The quiet nights at home They tore us apart We held on somehow Through stormy weather Wondered whether we'd weather The love in our hearts But we weather the sunshine We weather the storms Cold nights together We stay close and warm And I'm better beside you Though I'm tattered, I'm torn And I know you'll need me When you're weary and worn Sometimes we're old friends, We're laughing together Sometimes we're mules With burdens to bear Sometimes we're fightin', I'm watching you thinkin' How times without warning, The darkness is there But we weather the sunshine We weather the storms Cold nights together We stay close and warm And I'm better beside you Though I'm tattered, I'm torn And I know you'll need me When you're weary and worn Now you're on the telephone From somewhere else Saying you're just trying to get free And I'm stoned, I'm senseless Got no feeling for the pain It's not who we set out to be But we weather the sunshine We weather the storms Cold nights together We stay close and warm And I'm better beside you Though I'm tattered, I'm torn And I know you'll need me When you're weary and worn
