Lyrics[]
When shadows fall
And blue skies all turn to gray
I'll light the way
When night rolls in
And you need a friend who'd wait for days
I'll always stay
Right by your side
Nothing to hide from me
Through thick and thin
There and back again
You'll see
You can count on me
when yesterdays won't burn away
Like they used to do
I'll walk through them too
When the echoes pound
Drown out the sound of love so true
I'll whisper to you
Right by your side
Nothing to hide from me
Through thick and thin
There and back again
You'll see
You can count on me
You can count on me
When the fire's on the ground
You can count on me
When the ashes won't stay down
When talk and darkness
Cloud all you see
When eyes won't stay open
You can count on me
When dawn draws near
I'll calm the fear that holds you tight
In the dark of night
When the morning comes
We'll let the sun shine so bright
We'll walk in the light
Right by your side
Nothing to hide from me
Through thick and thin
There and back again
You'll see
You can count on me
You can count on me (x2)
