lyrics

When you finish falling I know he'll help you stand
I know he'll help you up, I know he'll always hold your hand
And when he brings you to the top and pushes you again

I know you'll have forgotten by the time you land

When you're down and out
On your own and troubled
Holding on and holding up
I can give you love
My love won't be enough

And though it's very dark here you know your way around
You've settled like the dust, you're familiar with the ground
And though you long to find the
light you fear the light will let you down
So you kneel among the rocks and pray you're never found

When you're down and out
On your own and troubled
Holding on and holding up
I can give you love
My love won't be enough

I can't stay here
I can't stay here
I can't stay here anymore

So when you've finished falling he'll help you stand again
He'll push you down again, he'll lift you up again
I'll hear you cry again
I'll hear you cry again
I'll hear you cry again
