My love, we have seen it all The endless confession, the rise and fall As fragile as a child Lately I'm sorry I can't hold a smile But I stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide [Chorus] Did you know I take the time for you Did you know that I would see you through Did you know that I would play the part I must've made it clear right from the start My love, can you give me strength Somehow I forgot how to ease my pain I know I'm right where I belong Something from nothing never proved me wrong But I stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide [Chorus] I would shade my whole life with you Would you do the same for me And I would give all I am to you Would you do the same for me And I will stand tall to get by No matter how hard I try to hide Could you see I've been brave Did you notice all my mistakes There were times I could feel you read my mind [Chorus] Did you know I take the time for you Did you know that I would see you through Did you know that I would play the part I know I made it clear right from the start
