Say what you want
If I'm not there
You know it hurts
You can't save me now

Please tell me this world isn't real
I can't make it without you
Forced to struggle on my own
To make my life easy

CHORUS:
carry me when the sea wind dies
hold me when the fire goes out
make the earth stay stable for me
tell the rough waters to stop beating me

can you be there when I need you most?
Can you make the rain fall up instead?
Will you show me that you love me?
Will you want me when I feel ashamed?

CHORUS

'cause I need you when I need you
and I don't know how or why
but I would give all the world
for you to just be there

CHORUS

and I would give all the world
for you to just be there
