When we were young, you thought it cool
To dance with the boys from the local school
They made you cry, made you feel a fool
But we were there for you

When the world does too much to ya
And everybody's preaching at ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand
When the world does too much to ya
Everybody wants a bit of ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand

Time moved on horizons grew
You ran with the art school drop-outs who
Needed someone to look down to
And we were there for you

When the world does too much to ya
And everybody's preaching at ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand
When the world does too much to ya
Everybody wants a bit of ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand

When they got bored with you
And left you there in pain
We picked you up and brushed you down
And made you laugh again

When the world does too much to ya
And everybody's preaching at ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand
When the world does too much to ya
Everybody wants a bit of ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand

When the world does too much to ya
And everybody's preaching at ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand
When the world does too much to ya
Everybody wants a bit of ya
When you're reaching for a hand
Here we stand

Here we stand
Here we stand
