When the night feels endless, cold and deep, 
Em                    C             G 
And youre too afraid to fall asleep, 
Am                      Em 
Ill pull you close, wont let you break, 
Am                        D 
Ill guard your dreams till morning wakes. 
 

 
G                  D 
And if one day Im not right there, 
Em              C             G 
You call my name into the air, 
Am                      Em 
Dont think Im gone or far from you, 
C                       D 
I live in everything you do.

Ill be there in the light you feel,

In every scar that starts to heal, 
       C        D         G  D  Em 
Even when my voice is gone, 
     Am                   D 
In your heart I still live on. 
              G               D 
Through every tear you try to hide,

Im the quiet by your side,

Till your last breath you will see,

You were never alone  you have me.

When youre shattered, lost in pain, 
Em                  C             G 
And nothing seems to ease the rain, 
Am                    Em 
Close your eyes, Ill still be near, 
Am                     D 
In your strength  Im always here. 
 

 
G                   D 
I wont leave you empty, cold,

Every memory that we hold,

Im the part that chose to stay.

When the years have made you strong, 
    C         D      G       D  Em 
And you help others carry on, 
Em                   Bm 
Youll feel my hands within your own, 
    C                 G            D 
Youll know you never walked alone.

Love like ours wont fade away,

Not in time, not in decay.
