Hand in Hand

You were there when the room felt strange

You made a little space

feel safe

We learned the map by getting lost Taking turns to pay the

cost Laughing hard on borrowed time Turning bad days into light You

knew me long before the words Before the plans and all the

noise When I was low

and half afraid

You stayed,

you stayed

No, we don't need to say much now

I can hear it in how you stay

When the ground moves under us You don't look away

Friend of my heart,

friend of my days You carry the dark

and turn it to

grace Side by side,

even when the road gets rough Friend of my heart,

you are enough Oh,

oh, we're growing up together Oh,

oh, and you make me better Now the years wear different clothes

Different streets and different homes Still I know just where to run

When the night outlasts the sun You call me out,

you call me in Tell the truth and let me mend That

kind of love is rare and real A steady wheel If time

pulls us wide like a river I know this won't break in

the bend

Some ties are quiet and lasting You're family I got to choose

Friend of my heart,

friend

of my days You carry the dark and turn it to grace

Side by side, even when the road gets rough Friend of my

heart, you are enough Oh,

oh, we're growing up together Oh,

oh, and you make me better You were there,

you are here My good friend,

my good friend (ooh)
