Always Be There

(album: Talking Pictures - 2020)

I held a picture, your hand in mine
We were walking on a hillside, off to fly kites
It was almost a memory, almost a truth
Except you didn't know me, and I hadn't met you

I'm staying on, forever I swear
So you know I'll always be there
I promise to hold you, however scared
So you know I'll always be there

Now you're inside her, barely a given
You're holding a lifeline, beating a rhythm
You're floating somewhere in outer space
And you're swimming in the jet stream, surrendered in grace

I'm staying on, forever I swear
So you know I'll always be there
And I promise to hold you, however scared
So you know I'll always be there
Oh, so you know I'll always be there

I saw it all so clearly
As if it's all been said and done, oh
Now I'm barely breathing but I'm bursting inside
And I'm waiting on someone like you to arrive

I'm staying on, forever I swear
So you know I'll always be there
Oh, and I promise to hold you, however scared
So you know I'll always be there

Always be there, always be there
Forever I swear, I'll always be there
And I promise to hold you, hold you, however scared
So you know I'll always be there
Oh, so you know I'll always be there
Oh, so you know I'll always be there
Don't you worry, I will always be there
