[Verse 1]
I'm so sorry your father is leaving
And I'm sorry your mom's such a mess
And it seems like your ranks have been shrinking
With so few on whom you can depend
[Chorus 1]
But I'll be standing right by
Girl, won't I?
[Verse 2]
You can't choose your time or your family
If you have any family, that is
And if they get the idea there's money
Well, get ready to fight with your friends
[Chorus 2]
But I don't want a dime
Girl, do I?
[Verse 3]
Nobody gets out of grieving, I know
It's so cold when you're out in the wind
I know somebody sold us the dream big time
They really got us with that line of shit
[Chorus 3]
But I'm straight up down the line
Girl, ain't I?
[Verse 4]
I got so scared I could barely keep breathing
Thought of time I won't gеt back again
It was so hard to keep on believing
But you helpеd me to reel it back in
[Chorus 4]
I was losing my mind
Girl, wasn't I?
[Chorus 5]
But if you want, I can try
Girl, can't I?
If you try again too
Girl, can you?
I know it's not all right
But it could be
We could get there in time
You and me
