Story Behind The Song
I had a dream and in it Johnny Cash was admonishing me for using too many minor chords in my songs. So we jammed a bit and worked the progression out. The words flowed out quickly afterwards.

Lyrics
'Cause you know that I know it's not like the moon,
this little step we take
And I know, that you know, our hill of beans
could be a mountain of pain
But from where I've been, to where I'm at
I've done it on my own
I can look in the mirror, and be satisfied
But I don't want to walk this path alone
So if you stick with me, I'll stick with you
Keepin' each other warm
Knowin' full well a fall might destroy us
I'll take a leap of faith into your arms
Sometimes scared, yeah a little afraid
That I won't catch you
But beautiful things. they don't come to cowards
So be my hero and I'll champion you too
And if you stick with me, I'll stand by you
Weatherin' through the storms
Ready to fly or fall I'm lover's leaping in faith into your arms
Ready to fly or fall I'm lover's leaping in faith into your arms
