(Alex Lifeson)

I need you to hold me tightly in your arms

I need you to show me if I might be wrong

I am pink and you are blue

Can I trust my whole life to you ?

Just don't take me for some fool

When I need to depend on you

I am not your part time job

What you get is what you are

You can hurt like no one can

You're such a child for such a man

You need strenght, you need to take a stand

Just stop looking to me for a helping hand

When you're ready I will be here

I can help you lose your fear

You better stand up on your feet

If you ever want to feel my heat

Clear your mind of those things gone by

You can't change the past, why even try

You can build upon all you've learned

You can start today

No one said it wouldn't be this hard

When you share, prepare to give a lot

Just remember when you look at me

You are you and I am me

When you're ready I will be here

I can help you lose your fear

You better stand up on your feet

If you ever want to feel my heat

Clear your mind of those things gone by

You can't change the past, why even try

Look ahead, to those better days

Make the effort it always pays

You can build upon all you've learned

You can start today
