Lyrics
You're movin' faster than an outbound train
You're moving quickly, like an outbound train
Tryin' to find a way to outrun pain
Attempting to escape or avoid pain
And every time you start to come undone
Every time you feel overwhelmed or distressed
You always start to run
Your instinct is to run away
My heart is breaking for you, I admit
Expressing empathy for the pain you're experiencing
It's hard to watch you fall apart like this
Difficult to witness you falling apart
And I can't begin to know your sorrow
Acknowledging the depth of your sorrow
I have not walked far inside your shoes
Recognizing a lack of understanding of your experiences
And I wish you would let me
Expressing a desire to support and love despite limited understanding
Love you through this
Wishing to provide love and support throughout the challenges
'Cause I'll stay with you (even in your darkest night)
Commitment to staying with you, especially in difficult times
Wait with you (for a little sign of light)
Willingness to wait for a positive sign in challenging situations
Cry with you (if the answers never come)
Ready to share the emotional burden and cry together
I'll be the one who
Offering to be a source of hope and encouragement
Hopes with you (there will be a better day)
Expressing optimism for a better future
So hold onto (every little piece of faith)
Encouraging to hold on to every bit of faith during tough times
As long as it takes, I'll stay
Promising to stay as long as it takes to provide support
And if He sees a sparrow fall or fly
Referencing divine care for even small creatures
Watches the lilies open to the sky
Highlighting divine attention to nature's beauty
Then how much more does He love you and I
Emphasizing the love and care from a higher power
Sometimes it's hard to just believe it's true
Expressing the difficulty in believing in this love
But if you can't, I will stand believing for you
Commitment to maintain belief for the other person
'Cause I'll stay with you (even in your darkest night)
Reiteration of the commitment to stay through difficult times
Wait with you (for a little sign of light)
Continued willingness to wait for positive signs
Cry with you (if the answers never come)
Reaffirming readiness to share the emotional burden
I'll be the one who
Reiterating the role of being a source of hope
Hopes with you (there will be a better day)
Expressing optimism for a better future, again
So hold onto (every little piece of faith)
Encouraging to hold on to faith, again
As long as it takes, I'll stay
Repeating the commitment to stay for as long as needed
Let me be still and quiet
Requesting stillness and quietness in challenging times
Let me be Love's reminder
Offering to be a reminder of love
Let me be the one who's meant to
Expressing a willingness to fulfill the role intended by a higher power
Be the arms that Jesus sent you
Offering to be a supportive presence sent by a higher power
'Cause I'll stay with you (even in your darkest night)
Reiteration of the commitment to stay through difficult times
Wait with you (for a little sign of light)
Continued willingness to wait for positive signs
Cry with you (if the answers never come)
Reaffirming readiness to share the emotional burden
I'll be the one who
Reiterating the role of being a source of hope
Hopes with you (there will be a better day)
Expressing optimism for a better future, again
So hold onto (every little piece of faith)
Encouraging to hold on to faith, again
As long as it takes, I'll stay, I'll stay
Repeating the commitment to stay for as long as needed
