When I am down and need to cry till morning,   I know just where I am going.   When I'm in need of sweet commiseration    To speak out loud.   Raise a glass to friendship   And to knowing you don't have to go alone.   We'll raise out hearts to share each other's burdens   On this road.      Every burden I have carried,    Every joy its understood.   Life with you is half as hard,    And twice as good.      With my good news you're dancing on the table:   Baby's born, to celebration.   The joy of life, oh what a sweet communion,   Shared with you.      Every burden I have carried,    Every joy its understood.   Life with you is half as hard,    And twice as good.      Every burden I have carried,    Every joy its understood.   Life with you is half as hard,    And twice as good.      I know we're growing older,   Can you imagine what that will bring?   It's all a mystery to me now,   Except this one thing:   It'll be half as hard, and twice as good.
