You've been livin' way too long in broken-promise land
Your dreams crushed an' scattered like a million grains of sand
I'd love to be your redemption but I am just a man
I may never be a hero but I'm a rock you can lean on

If I don't love you like you deserve
If I don't stop every tear you're cryin'
If I don't make your life a heaven on this earth
I'll die tryin', I'll die tryin'

I'll listen to your secret prayer an' share your deepest wish
Search for a hundred years just to find the perfect kiss
Of everything within my power there's nothin' I won't give
To be that part of you an' your life oh that takes what's wrong, makes it right

If I don't love you like you deserve
If I don't stop every tear you're cryin'
If I don't make your life a heaven on this earth
I'll die tryin', I'll die tryin'

I may never be a hero but I'm a rock you can lean on

If I don't love you like you deserve
If I don't stop every tear you're cryin'
If I don't make your life a heaven on this earth
I'll die tryin', oh I'll die tryin', I'll die tryin'
