This wasn't meant for the faint of heart.
I broke my back for this once,
I'll break my back for this again.
Is anybody listening?
Does it matter if they do?
The only one I really want to hear this
My darling, is you.

I'd do anything to make up for the things
That we both lack.
I've lost sleep over this before,
But I've got the rest of my life to catch up.
If you need help, then you should know,
You can throw all your problems at me.
I won't ever dodge them, let's solve them.

Let me hold onto your crumbling heart.
I have confided in you,
So now you can confide in me.
I'll keep you secrets,
You can hold that to me, too.
Of everything you've ever known,
Know how much I love you.

I'd do anything to make up for the things
That we both lack.
I've lost sleep over this before,
But I've got the rest of my life to catch up.
If you need help, then you should know,
You can throw all your problems at me.
I won't ever dodge them, let's solve them.

Every damned problem that we face
Might just lead to our fall from grace,
So I will ask to take your hand
So we can help each other stand.
We may not understand at all,
But I can hear the things God called
For me to do
And I need to hold onto you.

So can we just take this one right back to the start?
I broke my back for this once,
I'll break my back for this again.
Make sure you're listening,
You need to hear this loud and clear.
No matter what happens, darling dear,
I will be here for you.

I'd do anything to make up for the things
That we both lack.
I've lost sleep over this before,
But I've got the rest of my life to catch up.
If you need help, then you should know,
You can throw all your problems at me.
I won't ever dodge them, let's solve them.
