If you’re down
I’ll be around
If there’s none left to call
If your backs against the wall
You can use me
To catch the fall
To set straight the crooked
And hold the candle through the bleak
Through the winter cold
And the days long
If it is warmth you seek
I’ll be around
In this place you know so well
The surroundings
And the distant church bell
If sleep is a dream just as it is for me
There are arms to hold you
To help you feel whole again
Unbroken and unafraid
Fullfilled and not empty
Because I know you
And I know I need you the same
I will never scorn your name
Or play wretched games with your heart
But I will be here for you
Whether you know it or not
When the night is lonesome
And the moon is high
My song sings of you
And to the dark it cries
The crystal morning comes too soon
As I lie, but not beside you
If you’re down
I’ll be around
To right the wrong
And continue the fight
And if no longer you are mine
I will still say the same
I’m always under the same sky
That once belonged
To you and I
These words are yours to keep
To do with as you please
To throw away
Or cherish
Always know they came from me
They are true
And come from the love we shared
As two
