I choked back tears today |
|
'Cause I can't begin to say |
|
How much you've shaped this boy |
|
These last ten years or more |
|
My friends, we've seen it all |
|
Triumphs to drunken falls |
|
And our bones are broken still |
|
But our hearts are joined until |
|
Time slips its tired hand |
|
Into our tired hands |
|
We've years 'til that day |
|
And so much more to say |
|
You give the strength to me |
|
A strength I never had |
|
I was a mess, you see |
|
I'd lost the plot so bad |
|
You dragged me up and out |
|
Out of the darkest place |
|
There's not a single doubt |
|
When I can see your faces |
|
My friends, we've seen it all |
|
When it made no sense at all |
|
You dare to light my path |
|
And found the beauty in the aftermath |
|
Let me hold you up |
|
Like you held me up |
|
It's too long to never say this |
|
You must know I've always thought |
|
You give the strength to me |
|
A strength I never had |
|
I was a mess, you see |
|
I'd lost the plot so bad |
|
You dragged me up and out |
|
Out of the darkest place |
|
There's not a single doubt |
|
When I can see your faces |
|
You give the strength to me |
|
A strength I never had |
|
I was a mess, you see |
|
I'd lost the plot so bad |
|
You dragged me up and out |
|
Out of the darkest place |
|
There's not a single doubt |
|
When I can see your faces |
