INTRO: (x2) VERSE 1: Baby, you always knew how to stand up straight. Honey, I gave to you and you gave it all away. Oh me, could you sing for me tonight. I don't care what they say I'll just fill my lungs to get it out so sing I... CHORUS: When we kissed in the sky we could hold the world by the wings when we sing on the breath of the wind. VERSE 2: Sister, could you be a crutch tonight. Giver, my words are clay but in you they mean so much. Hold me, hold me up in bitter times. All I see are lights ahead, is this fear I hold, I can see your smile, your teenage smile. CHORUS (x2) BRIDGE: Don't let me down, don't let me alone tonight. VERSE 3: Mother, when I'm scared I can cling to your knee. Lover, I'll hold your neck and try to say something sweet. Someday I'll be strong enought to say, I once needed to be loved, but when you stand by, I can stand alone, I stand alone. CHORUS (x2) )
