To prove my love is true

Lately I've been trying to find the words
To prove my love is true
And that no matter what happens in this world
I’ll be there for you

I’ll be there for you when you need someone
To come and hold you tight
I’ll be there for you even if you call
In the middle of the night
Even if you have nothing to give,
I'll give with all of my might


I’ll be there for you when the rain won’t stop
Falling upon your life
I’ll wipe your tears and chase your fears
I’ll help you with your fight

I’ll do my best to protect you from harm
To keep you safe and well
And when you have a problem hidden
I’ll be who you can tell

I’ll take your very darkest night
And I’ll make it bright
And even if we are far apart
My love will still be true

When this world turns bitter and cold
And you don’t know what to do
I’ll be the one that’s there to hold
Together we’ll pull through

When you're alone calling out for help
Struggling to even stand
I’ll use my strength to keep you up
I’ll hold out to you, my hand

And I know these are but just words on a page
But they mean so very much more
They are everything that I promise to do
They are everything for you, I’d endure

And I know I’m not as strong as before
And maybe now I’m a little weak
But my love for you still stands as strong
Even when this world turns bleak

You've given me a reason to live and to fight
So I’ll live and I’ll fight for you
For I know together, even though we've suffered
In the end we will pull through

All this pain that you've been handed
You don’t deserve a drop
You're not a bad person and you've done nothing wrong
So I’ll fight for your pain to stop

It makes me angry that someone so pure
Should be made to feel this pain
I know that there’s no miracle cure
But I’ll try to stop this rain

So when the world turns bitter and cold
And you don’t know what to do
You never have to be afraid because
I’ll always be there for you

It's so easy to love
when you know exactly what to do
I'll forever hold you close and promise to pull you through

When you feel you have nothing left to give
Don't you worry one bit because
the love I have for you is strong enough to get us through
