lyrics

I'm standing right here. I'm looking at you. But I can't remember what the hell I was gonna do. Some days it's easy. Some days I know it all. But once in a while I feel like a spinning top about to fall.

Won't you catch me? Won't you pull me in?
Remind me how to stand on solid ground again.
I've been trying, but it seems I've come undone
right now I need you to be the strong one.

I know you promised that you'd stand by me
but everytime I find you here it's still surprising.
How'd I get so lucky, to find a heart that understands,
I might turn away from you but just keep reaching out your hand.

CHORUS

When it's your turn to feel uncertain I'll be steady as a stream.
So bring it on I can take it, those old walls we can break them down.
When you need me I will be the strong one

And i will catch you, I can pull you in, remind you how to stand on solid ground again.
When you're trying but still you come undone.
Baby I will be the strong one.
