Talking makes us human that's what i was told

So why do i find it so difficult to let my feelings unfold

Had i the courage to tell you i'd promise you this



If that's what you need

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

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

I promised myself i wouldn't tell you

Until we stood on solid ground

Holding the candle between us i'll tell you this



If that's what you need

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

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

I hear you calling out my name

You can follow in my footsteps

And i will lead you safely back again



I never understood you however hard i tried

But it took me a while until i realised

That all the problems were mine

Holding you nearer to me to tell you this



If that's what you need

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

If that's what you need

I will be stronger i will be braver than ever before

And when things go wrong

I'll be your conscience there to remind you all of your life

When you go wrong

I'll be the reason you'll be protected all of your days
