Intro

Verse 1

Baby, you always knew how to stand up straight.

Honey, I gave to you and you gave it all away.

Oh me, could you sing for me tonight.

I don't care what they say

 I'll just fill my lungs

 to get it out so sing I...

Chorus

 When we kissed in the sky we could hold the world by the wings

 when we sing on the breath of the wind.

Verse 2

Sister, could you be a crutch tonight.

Giver, my words are clay but in you they mean so much.

Hold me, hold me up in bitter times.

All I see are lights ahead,

 is this fear I hold, I can see your smile, your teenage smile.

Chorus

x2)

Bridge

Don't let me down, don't let me alone tonight.

Verse 3

Mother, when I'm scared I can cling to your knee.

Lover, I'll hold your neck and try to say something sweet.

Someday I'll be strong enought to say,

I once needed to be loved, but when you stand by,

 I can stand alone, I stand alone.

Chorus

x2)

(Till End; End On )
