[Verse 1] When my fever broke your sleep You brought me water, you held me deep You tucked the blanket by my chin You said, "Baby, let me in" When I shook, you warmed my hands You knew the ache before I could stand You never made it feel like work You loved me first, you loved me worst [Pre-Chorus] And when I lose my way You light the road When you can’t find your strength I carry your load [Chorus] We’re always there Always there Through the hurt, through the years We’re always there (Always there) You hold me up I hold you through That’s what we do [Verse 2] When your mom called late last night You sat real still, I held you tight No big speech, just my arms Pulling you back from the dark When money’s thin and time runs out We still show up, no need to shout I cook the beans, you fix the door We keep each other wanting more [Pre-Chorus] And when the world gets loud You calm my mind When your heart feels raw I stay right by [Chorus] We’re always there Always there Through the hurt, through the years We’re always there (Always there) You hold me up I hold you through That’s what we do [Bridge] If I fall, you don’t look away You kneel beside me, you make me stay If you break, I don’t run I’m the night you can lean on Every bruise, every prayer Every hard day, we were there Every tear, every call We don’t let each other fall [Final Chorus] We’re always there Always there Through the hurt, through the years We’re always there (Always there) You hold me up I hold you through That’s what we do Always there Always there I got you, you got me too We’re always there (Always there) That’s the vow That’s the truth
