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?
