You ask me if I love you   It's something I should know by now   Well, I don't look at love   As something you play with   When I give my heart, I give it all.      But it's been awhile   Since I've felt these old feelings   You're tearing down walls   That I've built 'round my heart   So I have to ask if you're sure that you're ready   Before I let the rest of me fall.      Chorus:   Will you be here, when I need a shoulder   And hold to my hand when I need you most   Promise your love, always and forever   It's something that's got to be clear will you be here?      When the nights are long   And the chill gets colder   Will your heart stay strong   And love with no doubt   Will you look at me, when I get older   The same way you look at me now.      Chorus:   Will you be here, when I need a shoulder   And hold to my hand when I need you most   Promise your love, always and forever   It's something that's got to be clear will you be here?..
