It's the longest night of the darkest year The one you learn that life can go and disappear And the holy light is it gathering here Cause how can he explain the kind of pain you feel Said I just want to hold you I don't really know if I can fix this dear Hate to see you hurting No you're not a burden I volunteer Won't drown in the river I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver I'll carry through If you lose all the meaning of Life, love and truth I'll stand and deliver I'll show up for you It comes to pass, don't come to stay But heal these wounds When you had a very bad day As long as we are living The dessert is our lie We'll hold on to each other in the darkest and the light Won't drown in the river I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver I'll carry through If you lose all the meaning of Life, love and truth I'll stand and deliver I'll show up for you I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver Even though you've been low, oh darling You got someone to keep your head up high Won't drown in the river I'll swim out to you I'll stand and deliver I'll carry through If you lose all the meaning of Life, love and truth I'll stand and deliver I'll show up for you I'll stand, stand and deliver I'll stand, stand and deliver I stand I stand Stand and deliver
