[Verse: Darien Brockington]
You used to wake me with a smile on your face
Each morning, lying next to you
Now we don't talk, 'cause you have nothing to say
So sad; wish I could help see you through
[Chorus: Darien Brockington, with Phonte]
Wishing time would stand still
So you don't feel left behind (Left behind)
You never thought you'd find
Yourself broken, torn apart
I know there'll be times of rain,
Those are the days that I want to give in
I'll be your friend through your cloudy days
Don't be ashamed, I won't let you give in
[Verse: Darien Brockington, with Phonte]
Sometimes, I wish you could say all the things you want me to be
But every day that that you cry (Every day you cry...)
Is a day that goes by (As the days go by...)
And you're slipping away from me, yeah
[Chorus: Darien Brockington, with Phonte]
Wishing time would stand still (Stand still)
So you don't feel left behind (Oh, left...) (Left behind) (Left behind...)
You never thought you'd find
Yourself broken, torn apart (Ohhh-oh-oh)
I know there'll be times of rain, (Times of rain)
Those are the days that I want to give in (That I want to give in...)
I'll be your friend through your cloudy days (Cloudy days...)
Don't be ashamed, I won't let you give in (Ashamed... ohh oh oh)
[Verse: Phonte]
Hey, love, I've been meaning to call ya
Seems the stress of life put cracks in your armor
But you do it, 'cause it has to be done
Although it seems, the faster you run, your destination gets farther
I wish that I could take away your problems with a drop –
Of a dime, and say it's all good, but its not,
Your dreams get undermined, accounts get overdrawn
No matter the case, girl – I'm waiting with open arms
My word is bond
[Chorus: Darien Brockington]
I know there'll be times of rain, (Times of rain)
Those are the days that I want to give in (That I want to give in...)
I'll be your friend through the cloudy days (Cloudy days...)
Don't be ashamed, I won't let you give in (Ashamed... ohh oh ohhhh)
I know there'll be times of rain, (No, no, no, no, no....)
Those are the days that I want to give in (I...)
I'll be your friend through the cloudy days (Be your friend... through the cloudy days)
Don't be ashamed, I won't let you give in (Oh yeah...)
[Outro: Darien Brockington]
(Ohh, yes... oh, I'm right here, baby)
(I'm not going away, no – no, no, no... no, no, no...)
