I'm Here For You

There are people who come along every day
Who build us up and stand by our sides.
The kind of folks who don't look away.
Give us strength, help us reach past our pride.

See us in a way that we can't see ourselves.
Talk us down when we just want to die
Tell us that we're loved and make our hearts melt.
Help us reach out side ourselves, not hide.
They say...
    CHORUS:
    I'm here for you baby
    To catch you if you fall.
    I'm standing here behind you
    I hear you when you call
    I know that you can handle it
    When life's throws you a curve ball
    I'm right here. I've got your back kid
    Now be strong and go stand tall
Life doesn't always turn out how we want it, baby
But you've gotta know that there's a plan
You've got your choice you've got your agency
And I'll always be here to lend you a hand

So raise your wings and fly now, pretty baby
Go work hard and do all that you've planned
Be who you've always dreamed you could be
Tell the world now "Catch me if you can"
Then you can say...
    CHORUS:
    I'm here for you baby
    To catch you if you fall.
    I'm standing here behind you
    I hear you when you call
    I know that you can handle it
    When life's throws you a curve ball
    I'm right here, I've got your back kid
    Now be strong and go stand tall
