Sometimes the things you want the most
Seem unobtainable - beyond reach
Each day it seems they drift away
You’re losing all the things you truly love
Don’t let them go, never let go

Take my hand and know you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home
Just take my hand - you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home
 
Sometimes the summit is obscured
And hidden in these dark oppressive clouds
Each step feels like it’ll be your last
Weighed down with all your fear and all the doubt
Just let it go, let it all hang
 
Take my hand and know you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home
Take my hand - you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home 

Each day is a gift
Breathe it in my friend and enjoy
Come play, kiss the world
Feel the wonder now - let it all unfold

Take my hand and know you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home
Just take my hand - you’re not in this alone
Lift your head and see you’re not far from home

Sometimes

A bolt from the blue
A sucker punch hits you
Paying no heed to race
No pleading your case
Unaware, so unprepared
So really scared
When everything’s been said - there’s you

You can’t make it on your own
Don’t fight this all alone
You can’t make it on your own
You need a helping hand

A light now appears
A kindly word, a listening ear
You’re there to share my tears
Help me to face my fears
Hope a four-letter word
Not so absurd
Cos then, in the end, there’s you

You can’t make it on your own
Don’t fight this thing alone
You can’t make it on your own (on your own)
Here’s a helping hand

After the storm and all the hurting
You emerge so much stronger and wiser
After the storm the scars show you’re a fighter
We’re here for you to remind you again

You can’t make it on your own
Don’t fight this all alone 

(A bolt - from the blue - a sucker punch - hits you)

You can’t make it on your own
You need a helping hand
