When the wind starts to howl on the ridge
And the water rises over the bridge
I won't pack my bags to run from the rain
I will stand right here and carry
the pain
I'm locked in for the long haul ride
No matter the turn of the tide
Through the storm and the dust we'll endure
My word is a promise,
heavy and sure (yeah)
Gold can tarnish and iron can rust
But what we built won't crumble to dust
Through the lean years and seasons of gray
I'm staying put, I'm not walking away
I'm locked in for the long haul ride
No matter the turn of the tide
Through the storm and the dust we'll endure
My word is a promise,
heavy and sure (sure)
I am here,
I will stand
Holding tight
to your hand
(holding
on)
