Talking makes us human  that's what I was told
     B                  E       F#m                     E                 
So why do I find it so difficult  to let my feelings unfold
 A         E          C#m                      B    E                         
Had I the courage to tell you I'd promise you this


[Chorus]

If that's what you need

I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before

When you came along and turned it all around
    B                         E       F#m                          E                  
I promised myself I wouldn't tell you    Until we stood on solid ground
 A                     E      C#m             B    E             
Holding the candle between us I'll tell you this

                          D2 D  A4               
If that's what you need

I will be stronger I will be braver than ever before

And if there's any kind of danger
C           C6            A                                                         
I hear you calling out my name
C                 C6   C        C6   C                          
You can follow in my footsteps

And I will lead you safely back again

F#m             E    F#m                E                        
I never understood you however hard I tried
    B                           E      F#m                            E     
But it took me a while until I realised   That all the problems were mine
 A                 E    C#m            B    E   
Holding you nearer to me to tell you this

I'll be the river I'll be the mountain always beside you

And when things go wrong
 A          A     A2          A2       A         E        
I'll be your conscience there to remind you all of your life
                          D2 D D                              
When you go wrong
 A          A2     A2           A2       A       E         
I'll be the reason you'll be protected all of your days
