Dear friend, I know you're sad,
You feel like giving up
Dear friend, I know that times are bad,
You feel like giving up

But it doesn't have to be so hard,
It doesn't have to be so hard,
It doesn't have to be so hard, dear friend

Dear friend, you went up so high,
You never would come down,
But now, beneath the sky,
You only find the ground

You can't see past the night,
But there will come a light,
It doesn't have to be so hard to fall

When your hope is gone,
And you feel you can't go on,
I'll be there to catch you when you fall
And it won't hurt at all,
No, it won't hurt at all

You can't see past the night,
But there will come a light,
It doesn't have to be so hard to fall

When your hope is gone,
And you feel you can't go on,
I'll be there to catch you when you fall
And it won't hurt at all,
No, it won't hurt at all
