I, I want you to be mine, but
I want you to be free at the same time
To make no promises that can be broken,
no empty words to be spoken
And I want you to be my girl,
I do not need to be ? or rule your world
I guess this time in my life I tend to hold on much too tight

Oh, let's pull together ? both hearts through the fire
'Cause sooner or later, I can see us standin' shoulder-to-shoulder
Gotta pull together ? two hearts, one desire
'Cause sooner or later, we've got to stand for one another

If you walk a mile in my shoes, I will walk a mile in yours
And we'll find a common bond ? there's a love here to be found
If we could come to understand when we give it,
it comes back again
And if we dig deep, deep enough, we will find it in each of us

Oh, we gotta pull together ?both hearts through the fire
'Cause sooner or later, I can see us standin' shoulder-to-shoulder
Let's pull together ? two hearts, one desire
'Cause sooner or later, we've got to stand for one another

Ooo.. here's to us, I see us getting' better

It's funny, but as time goes by, you'd think we'd love and learn
But I'm into faith, now, as I was then
Just because we see the truth, it's not easier to hold
Just because we know it's hard, don't get left in it alone

I've been tellin' you, forever

(mixed chorus adlib to end)
