Don’t worry about me
Just take a seat
If you need somewhere to lean
Pretend I’m a tree
Forget all your worries
For a moment
Leave them by me
Even if I can’t leave the forest
Stay as long as you need

Babe are you lonely
Do you want to be embraced
I can spread my arms out
But you need to come to the shade
Don’t worry about me
My roots are grounded
I’m stronger than you know
My blood runs deep enough
To hold you up from below

Step off the road
Sit by my side
Let yourself go
Let yourself hide
There’s no need to stand up
In the heat of the light
I promise I’m your friend for
The rest of our lives

Don’t worry about a thing
I’m always here
If your life starts feeling crazy
If you’re full of despair
I’ll be a wishing well
Ready to take on
All of your stories
About anything and anyone
I’ll be your favorite ear
I’ll be the seat of the fountain
Whatever you need

Don’t worry about a thing
Baby, you’ll be okay
No matter how much you’re hurting
Right now, you’re okay
Throw your troubles off the cliffside
I’ve got you, babe
I can be the ground you stand on
I’ve got you, babe

Step off the road
Sit by my side
Let yourself go
Let yourself hide
There’s no need to stand up
In the heat of the light
I promise I’m your friend for
The rest of our lives

Step off the road
Sit by my side
Let yourself go
Let yourself hide
I offer you shelter
Let me take the fight
I promised I’m your friend for
The rest of our lives

If you’re tired of standing tall
Let me be the lamppost
Put your weight on me and breathe
If you feel that you gave your all
Let me be a handle
You could use some support
And all I need
Is to make sure you’re alright
I promise that I’ll be your friend for
The rest of our lives

Step off the road
Sit by my side
Let yourself go
Let yourself hide
There’s no need to stand up
In the heat of the light
I promise I’m your friend for
The rest of our lives

Step off the road
Sit by my side
Let yourself go
Let yourself hide
I offer you shelter
Let me take the fight
I promised I’m your friend for
The rest of our lives

Because you are the reason
That I still have strength to
Be here for the rest of our lives
