A loss that would have thrown a hole through anybody's soul

And you are only human after all

So don't hold back your tears, my dear

Release them so your eyes can clear

I know that you will rise again

But you gotta let them fall

I wish that I could snap my fingers

Erase the past, but no

You cannot rewind reality

Once the tape's unrolled

If your spirit's broken and you can't bear the pain

I will help you put the pieces back

A little more each day

And if your heart is locked and you can't find the key

Lay your head upon my shoulder

I'll set you free

I'll be your security

A moment of despair

That forces you to say that life's unfair

It makes you scared of what tomorrow may bring

But don't go giving in to fear

Stop hiding all alone in there

The show keeps going on and on

But you'll miss the whole damn thing

I wish I had a crystal ball

To see what the future holds

But we don't know how the story ends

'Til it's all been told

If your spirit's broken and you can't bear the pain

I will help you put the pieces back

A little more each day

And if your heart is locked and you can't find the key

Lay your head upon my shoulder

I'll set you free

I'll be your security

On any clock upon the wall

The time is always now

So baby, kiss the past goodbye

Don't let the future blow your mind

Just sit back and chill

Take things as they come

You can't be afraid to live for today

I will be with you each step of the way

If your spirit's broken and you can't bear the pain

I will help you put the pieces back

Bit by bit each and every day

If your heart is locked and you can't find the key

Lay your head upon my shoulder

I'll set you free

I'll be your security

If your spirit's broken and you can't bear the pain

I will help you put the pieces back

Dry the tears you cry

If your heart is locked and you can't find the key

Lay your head upon my shoulder

I'll set you free

I'll be your security

I'll be there for you to lean on

When you need a friend

When you need a friend

Lay your head upon my shoulder

Lean on me

I'll be your security
