Let’s take a step back in time
silly songs and nursery rhymes
carefree days - bandaid knees
story times and childhood dreams
Now here we are - in a different world
borrowed time - unspoken words
battle scars - hope worn thin
the same young heart that won’t give in
brave and strong - keep fighting on
Always by your side
catch you when you fall
climb mountains – break down walls
and when you’re feeling weak
I’ll find your words to speak
we’re not giving in
this war we’ll win
always by your side
If only this was make-believe
days could stay and never leave
life can play the cruelest games
We fight the odds - hope remains
So here, we are - let’s smile today
tomorrows still so far away
hold on to dreams, from younger years
side by side we’ll crush those fears
brave and strong
keep fighting on
Always by your side
catch you when you fall
climb mountains – break down walls
and when you’re feeling weak
I’ll find your words to speak
we’re not giving in
this war we’ll win
always by your side
The battle rages on
is there strength to carry on
I cry tears
don’t know how we got here -
then I look at you
your courage gets me through
you’re so brave
now I’m not so afraid
I’m always by your side
catch you when you fall
climb mountains – break down walls
and when you’re feeling weak
I’ll find your words to speak
I’m always by your side
catch you when you fall
climb mountains – break down walls
and when you’re feeling weak
I’ll find your words to speak
we’re not giving in
this war we’ll win -
always by your side
