Back when that fence just seemed so tall
And life was just a game to play with no rules at all
Back when I didn’t know how to play guitar
And then my voice could only reach so far

And I
Couldn’t cry
Didn’t know how to say
Oh oh  and I
Closed my eyes
And waited for it to end

Asking: What is this pain?
What is this hurt?
Is there a way to put it in words?
How do I say
That I’m afraid
To let you go

How do I learn?
How do I lead?
Feels like everythings coming at me
How do I feel when all I wanna do is leave

And I’ll stay by your side
I’ll be there when you cry
And you’ll know that you wont have to do this alone

And I’ll wait through the night
And together we’ll fight
And you’ll know. And we’ll know the answer

For when you
Say goodbye
Just for now
Not for long
You’ll be back
Here to stay
And then we’ll
Face tomorrow

What is this sting?
What is this blow?
Put on a smile and no one will know
We will survive
We’ll live to see tomorrow

Fight through the pain
For when it is gone
Life will still be there for you to lean on
Together we stand
And leave behind our sorrow

And one day you’ll know
And one day you’ll see
And one day you’ll look at me and know
The answer
