Strength


I want to hold you close
Make your problems fade away
Let you rest here in my arms
Give you strength to face the day

Let my smile be the one thing
That keeps you on your feet
Let my love bring you the hope
That helps your heart to beat

The Castles that we built
Will sink into the sand
The waves will steal the shoreline
Till you have no place to stand

But I will still be here my love
Though you think all hope is lost
And I would give you anything
No matter what the cost

And when your problems rise to meet you
And the shadows block your way
And you feel alone and lonely
And everything is grey

I will be here waiting
And I’ll be your strength to stand
Just simply call out my name
And I will take your hand

So wherever you may wander
And whatever problems come your way
When the dark tries to pull you under
And there’s no hope for a new day

Know that I will still be here my love
Though you think all hope is lost
And I would give you anything
No matter what the cost
