Will you take my hand and lead me overland And maybe do the buttons on my shirt I'll show you souvenirs and document our years Try and mend your heart when it's hurt Make me come alive, don't let me drink and drive And I will scratch your name into my arm And if it all falls down well then, I'll smile through a frown again The ever ringing silent alarm And all I ever wanted was someone to share it Shield me from grief or be around, to help me grin and bear it Oh prop me up against the bar as I try and tear it down As seas go this is rough, I'm made of softer stuff I'll waltz across the cobbles solo style My life has been my own, the years have fairly flown And now I walk the loneliest last mile And all I ever wanted was someone to share it Shield me from grief or be around, to help me grin and bear it Oh prop me up against the bar as I try and tear it down And all I ever wanted was someone to share it Shield me from grief or be around, to help me grin and bear it Oh prop me up against the bar as I try and tear it down
