Nina Mankin – The Heart That You Hold lyrics

YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING
READY TO BE BARTERED AND SOLD
YOU'RE COMING HOME IN THE EVENING
AND YOU'RE JUST A-ANOTHER LOST SOUL
WHEN YOU'RE FEELING TOO TIRED TO FIGHT
YOU KNOW THAT I- I CAN MAKE IT ALL RIGHT AND I'LL BE

BE THE FRIEND THAT YOU LEAN ON
THE SHOULDER YOU CRY ON
THE HEART THAT YOU HOLD
TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME,
LEAD ME WHEREVER YOU GO
CAUSE WHEN LIFE IS BITTER
MY TOUCH CAN BE SO SWEET

SOMETIMES I LOOK IN THE MIRROR
AND SEE MYSELF AS IF I WAS OLD
LIKE THESE TIMES OF TROUBLE HAD ALREADY
TAKEN THEIR TOLL
WHEN I'M FEELING TOO TIRED TO FIGHT
I KNOW THAT YOU- YOU CAN MAKE IT ALL RIGHT, AND YOU'LL BE

BE THE FRIEND THAT I LEAN ON
THE SHOULDER I CRY ON
THE HEART THAT I HOLD
TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME,
LEAD ME WHEREVER YOU GO
CAUSE WHEN LIFE IS BITTER
YOUR TOUCH CAN BE SO SWEET

CAUSE WHEN LIFE IS BITTER
MY TOUCH CAN BE SO SWEET

I'LL BE THE FRIEND THAT YOU LEAN ON
THE SHOULDER YOU CRY ON
THE HEART THAT YOU HOLD
TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME,
LEAD ME WHEREVER YOU GO
TAKE MY HAND AND LEAD ME,
LEAD ME WHEREVER YOU GO
I'LL BE THE FRIEND THAT YOU LEAN ON
THE SHOULDER YOU CRY ON
THE HEART THAT YOU HOLD
