Verse 1

i see you walking with

 the weight of the world

 she has a family to feed

 she needs a job for the bills

is it worth it just

 to scratch and survive?

 when the mouth that you

 feeds has a father alive?

Refrain

is it all a mystery?

is it all a dream?

you better forget yesterday

tomorrow wait and see

Chorus 1

as long as

night turns to day

i'll be here

i'll be here

just as long

as you stay

i'll be here

i'll be here

i'll never

push you away

i'll be here

i'll be here

its so hard

to face it

i know you'll

make it with me

Verse 2

i see a man with

 his back to the wall

 who's been sleeping

at night under

 a bridge up the road

what can he do when

 the people drive by?

 will they offer him change?

 won't they give him a ride?
