lyrics

What if I never grow as tall as my old man, what if nothing ever goes off quite the I planned, what if I never learn from my foolish mistakes, will I buckle under pressure, will I know which risks to take.

If I lay it on the table will you fold and walk away, is a chance to beat unlikely odds enough to make you stay, I’ve never been a gambler but I’d take that wager every day, I’ve never been that lucky, but this might just go my way.

She says, when you’ve bound yourself in worries and in doubts, like weights chained to you ankles dragging down, when the distance from the surface grows and you begin to drown, I’ll always be the one who pulls you out, I’ll always been the one who sticks around.

No one’s empty handed who’s got hand to hold, no good story starts with doing what you’re told, triumph is the sum of many failures, so the story goes, I’ve no appetite to face this life alone.

She says, when you’ve bound yourself in worries and in doubts, like weights chained to you ankles dragging down, when the distance from the surface grows and you begin to drown, I’ll always be the one who pulls you out, I’ll always been the one who sticks around.

Before the final bow, before the curtains come down, before the lights all go out, before I lose you in the crowd. Before the final bow, before the curtains come down, before the lights all go out, before I lose you in the crowd, I’ll always be the one who sticks around.
