See, the harsh wind bends the trees Violently tearing off their thinning leaves They bow down but never break Though it seems this force was more than they could take Remind yourself of this, my dear Right now I know you don't want to hear But you know deep down it won't last forever Though I know right now there is no end in sight And you know that this won't last forever Though right now for you there is no end in sight There is never any cure To this kind of agony you must endure And you think you can't be saved But we'll try to keep your head above the waves Remind yourself of this, my dear Somebody else still needs you here And you know these aches won't last forever Though right now for you there is no end in sight And you know your pains won't last forever Though right now for you there is no end in sight And just like those trees, you're shaken and bent, you're abandoned and bare And these winds these wind these winds they blow so cold and strong And you might lose all your leaves, it might break off a branch, but remember Your roots your roots your roots are still there to hold on hold on Remind yourself of that, my dear That we still are and will be here
