If I laid down my love to come to your defense
Would you worry for me with a pain in your chest?
Could I rely on your faith to be strong
To pick me back up and to push me along?
Tell me
You'll be there in my hour of need
You won't turn me away
Help me out of the life I lead
Remember the promise you made
Remember the promise you made..
If I gave you my soul for a piece of your mind
Would you carry me with you to the far edge of time?
Could you understand if you found me untrue
Would we become one, or divided in two
Please tell me..
You'll be there in my hour of need
You won't turn me away
Help me out of the life I lead
Remember the promise you made
Remember the promise you made..
Could I rely on your faith to be strong?
To pick me back up and to push me along
Please tell me..
You'll be there in my hour of need
You won't turn me away
Help me out of the life I lead
Remember the promise you made
Remember the promise you made
Remember the promise you made
Remember the promise you made..
