Though only in the shadows
Hidden by shades of gray,
I’ll be there beside you-
With each precarious step I’ll stay.

If you need me in the darkness
Or exposed in light of day.
I’ll stand right there with you-
I’m with you all the way.

When all of this is over
Or if it never ends.
One thing you can count on,
If it’s on my heart, your heart depends;

No matter where this road leads
Or what burdens we must bear
We’ll share the load together
Because, always, I’ll be there!
