Lyrics
Verse-
We were little girls in your dining‑room
making cakes and cookies in your easy bake
We sang Whitney like we were on a stage, belting every word out of tune.
Believing every New Kids song was secretly for you and me.
You trusted me with secrets you never told a soul, And I held them like they were sacred, like they were made of gold, I never uttered a single word. But there was one Secret kept I should’ve screamed outloud, one promise I should’ve broken
Maybe I could’ve saved the girl you were before your halo was stolen.
Pre-Chorus-
And I still feel that weight in the quiet of my chest,
Wishing I had fought for you
Broke my promise to save you from him.
Chorus-
So when the world feels heavy and your heart feels thin,
Let my voice be the strength you keep within.
When you doubt your worth or forget how to stand,
I’ll be the one reaching out my hand.
You’re not here to be used, you’re not here to be small
You deserve a love that never lets you fall.
And I’ll stay by your side through the thick and the dim…
Till you hear the friend you’ve always had within.
Verse 2-
High school came and I drifted away,
Chasing crowds, holding on to foolish pride, I left when you needed me the most
God, I wish I could undo
Every careless mistake that ever bruised and hurt you.
But there you were years down the road you smiled at me like nothing broke,
Forgiveness in your eyes, like it was the only language you spoke.
That’s who you are loving even when you bleed,
Giving pieces of yourself to those who only take what they need.
But you don’t have to earn love just to let it stay,
You don’t have to give yourself away.
Chorus-
So when the world feels heavy and your heart feels thin,
Let my voice be the strength you keep within.
When you doubt your worth or forget how to stand,
I’ll be the one reaching out my hand.
You’re not here to be used, you’re not here to be small
You deserve a love that never lets you fall.
And I’ll stay by your side through the thick and the dim…
Till you hear the friend you’ve always had within.
Bridge-
You’re not their doormat.
You’re not their cure.
You’re not the price they pay
For something more.
You’re The woman who still gives
Even when she wants to give up.
So let my voice remind you
Of the fire you’ve always had
You’re stronger than the hurt,
You’re more than what was bad.
And I’ll stand beside you
When you can’t stand at all…
I won’t let you fall.
Final Chorus-
When your hope feels quiet and your light feels dim, Let my voice be the strength you keep within.
When you doubt your worth or forget how to stand,
I’ll be right here, reaching out my hand.
You’re enough, you’re rare, you’re stronger than you knew
And I’ll fight beside you till you believe it too.
I’ll stay by your side through the thick and the dim…
Till you hear the friend you’ve always had within.
Within.
Within.
