Lyrics

You stand right before my eyes
And I need to tell you a million things held in my mind
Please don’t settle for anyone who can’t see your worth
Roar through the storm, make your voice heard
No matter what happens, hold your truth
Hang on , hang on, hold on to you

Choices been made, they weren’t always mine
We’ll always say, no troll left behind

This promise I make is everlasting
You’re gonna be ok
Though life won’t always go the way you planned
I’ll stand on the side and watch you fly
I’ll always be close by

You and me we’ve had the best of times
Even before you were here, I’m proud
That I travelled around and bungee’d into life
Cairo, Sydney, Bangkok, Vienna, Amsterdam
Climbed Chichen-Itza, came down on my bum
Swam with the fishes in Mexico
Please don’t hold back, dive in, just go

A photograph with Captain Sparrow turned into a hug from Goofy
You opened The Great Hall doors even when my toe was oweee

This promise I make is everlasting
You’re gonna be ok
Though life won’t always go the way you planned
I’ll stand on the side and watch you fly
I’ll always be close by

You’ll find me when you smell the popcorn in the cinema and the dark falls down
Well I’ll be walking right beside you, I know you’ll make me proud
So go to the theatre, settle in the cheap seats
Stand tall in assemblies, build some men out in the snow
The greatest part of my life was watching you grow

This promise I make is everlasting
You’re gonna be ok
Though life won’t always go the way you planned
I’ll stand on the side and watch you fly
I’ll always be close by
I’ll stand on the side and watch you fly
I’ll always be close by
