Something To Rely On


When I needed a hand to hold
You came running and gave me your own
When I fell to the ground and I cried
You refused to leave my side
And when I tried to correct all my mistakes
When my dreams all start to fade away
You make everything all right

When the world turns its back on you
Leaving you to believe that you're wrong
We all need something to rely on

When the shadows hide the sun
And it's hard to have faith and be strong
We all need something to rely on
And I rely on you

When the people I trusted were gone
You showed me how to carry on
When I failed every single attempt
You erased all of my discontent
And when I felt I was starting to lose my mind
When I felt I was running out of time
You made everything feel fine

When the world turns its back on you
Leaving you to believe that you're wrong
We all need something to rely on
When the shadows hide the sun
And it's hard to have faith and be strong
We all need something to rely on
And I rely on you

Oh, I was so lost without you
Oh, I felt so disconnected
Oh, living life without a clue
Oh, but my frozen heart has melted
And now I'm thankful
You've been so faithful
You mean everything to me

When the world turns its back on you
Leaving you to believe that you're wrong
We all need something to rely on
When the shadows hide the sun
And it's hard to have faith and be strong
We all need something to rely on
And I rely on you
