Strong Ties

Strong ties can be broken by one little fight
Where one say’s you’re wrong the other I’m right
But the truth is, it’s not worth it, so I swallow my pride
And kiss every tear from your eyes
Then like a man who is barely able, I rise to my feet
To carry the cross that you bare, I’ll be the only man who cares
I’ll be the light, you be the warmth and I’ll be there
So I hope you remember when times get rough
That you can rest easy knowing you’re loved
And when you wake you’ll find me lying beside you
My sleeping lips pressed to your cheek
Then like a man who is barely able, I’ll rise to my feet
To carry the cross that you bare, I’ll be the only man who cares
I’ll be the light, you be the warmth and I’ll be there
I will be there when there is no passage
I will be there when you’re on your way
And I realize hearts still get broken…
So I’ll carry the cross that you bare, I’ll be the only man who cares
I’ll be the light, you be the warmth and I’ll be there
I’ll be the light, honey, you’ll be the warmth and I’ll be there
