When I see you cry
What I'd give to hold you
But my hands are tied
So I'll watch you cry

When I see you bleed
What I'd give to heal you
In your time of need
If I don't, I won't succeed
So I try
Yes I try

You are not alone
There's a love beside you
Though this wall is stone
You are not alone
Let me lead your way
More than just a shadow
With you every day
Beside you, to guide you away
And I try
Yes I try

There's a hill to climb
These minutes slip through hands of time
And the hill is steep
And I know talk is cheap
Oh, but we'll be ok
So trust me as I lead the way
Yeah, we'll be alright if you just hold on tight
'Cause I try
Yes I try
And I try
Yes I try
When I see you cry
What I'd give to hold you
But my hands are tied
So I'll watch you cry
