Girl, now don't you know it's wrong
to depend on someone else to do those things that you won't do
for yourself
Lessons I've learned have changed the man I was,
to step light but with caution because the road is raw.
Mama used to say:
"Boy don't run away from your problems,
and if you face them you will see,
you'll always find a way to solve them.
I will always be there for you,
I will be by your side.
Only one thing I ask of you:
from your fears do not hide."
Girl, I waited for too long,
I've given all I can,
can you understand this man I will share with you

I will always be there for you,
I will be by your side (believe me).
