Lyrics
Take my hand, hold me close
Every breath's a gift, we don't know what tomorrow holds
But I know I need you, you show me the truth
And I will reach you somehow
I'll find a way
Build another world beyond the pain
I'll find a way to keep you safe
Until the end of time
I can't hide tears I've cried
Nothing in this world will move me, I'm never gonna leave your side
I want to see your face and hide in your wake
As long as you are with me
I'll find a way
Build another world beyond the pain
I'll find a way to keep you safe
Until the end, oh
Break the chains within your mind
Fighting blindly through the dark
I know you hear me, I would give my life
If it would save you from this
I'll find a way
Build another world beyond the pain
I'll find a way to keep you safe
Until the end of time
