I Will Back You Up

I let you in,

I gave you my word,

The best gift I ever got was you

Telling me you were sure now about us.

I like rising up in your eyes.

I hold on to our trust.

Forever I will stand.

So I will back you up

Even when you're wrong,

I will back you up, baby,

Until the end of the world,

Even when you've had enough

I'll be the one who backs you up.

So when all the rain is gone

And everything is breathing full, breathing full,

And all our troubles go soft,

I like sitting still with you

'Cause you are my home,

Yeah, you are my home.

So I will back you up

Even when you're wrong

I will back you up, baby,

Until the end of the world

Even when you've had enough

I will be the one 'cause

It took this long.

I needed to be done.

No more running, no more halfway.

And I've traveled far enough

To know you are where I want to stay,

And baby, you are where I want to stay,

So I will back you up

Even when you're wrong,

I will back you up, baby,

Until the end of the world,

I will back you up

Even when you're wrong,

I will back you up

Until the end of the world,

Even when you've had enough

I'll be the one who backs you up.
