It's never easy and you never know
  What leaves you crying
  And what makes you whole
  There ain't no way that I can hold it down
  Fallin' to pieces
  Forever in doubt
  
  But it's alright
  Why don't you tell me again
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  But it's alright
  Why don't you tell me, my friend
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  
  There ain't nobody who can show you how
  To find the surface when you're underground
  There ain't no blanket that can hide this cold
  There ain't no memory
  That ever gets old
  
  But it's alright
  Why don't you tell me again
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  But it's alright
  Why don't you tell me, my friend
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  
  And I move all directions
  To the corners and the outskirts
  While the lovers and the lonely
  Start to whisper all about me
  And if I stand here silent
  I almost start to feel you fading in
  Telling me hold on
  
  Cause it's gonna be alright
  Why don't you tell me again
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  But it's alright
  Why don't you tell me, my friend
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  How you'll still be there
  When the heartache ends
  
  Say you'll be with me
  When the heartache ends
