Words and music by Jimmy Nail



what do you do when it hurts when the kids

call you names ?

nobody wants to know you and they won't let you

join in all their games

and what will you do when the man in the moon

goes away ?

and leaves your little world in darkness

hiding from the nightmare until the day



you can come to me, I'll know what to do

and if I don't I'll pretend or I'll lie for you

but I'll be there for you forever

until the day I dle

right there by your slde,

to keep you safe and warm

glad to be your shelter from the storm

yes I'll be there for you forever

until the day I die



what will you do when you've grown and

flown away ?

where wlll the four winds take you ?

and will they bring you back to me someday ?

and what will you do when the one that you love

breaks your heart ?

you have to pick up all the pieces

but you don't know just where to start



you can come to me, I'll know what to do

and If I don't I'll pretend or I'll lie for you

but I'll be there for you forever

until the day I die

right there by your side

to catch you when you fall

and put you back together whether-with-all

yes I'll be there for you forever

until the day I die



until the day I die

I'll be there until the day I dle



until the day I die

I promise until the day I die
