Lyrics

"Here We Stand"
by
Marc Hirst
Could we have made it last forever?
Could we have held our nerve, to swim against the tide?
Could we have made it last a lifetime?
But I didn't know for sure if I could stand the ride,

But, I was afraid of letting go
Cos I was a child back then, just wanting to take things slow
And did you believe our love could make it to the end?
And what would you say if I could make you smile again
If I could make you fly again, yeah.

Here we stand, trying to make some sense of everything
Here we stand again my friend,
How could I have known that you were strong
And I was down in need of everyone
I was fighting with myself, I was losing to myself

Should we have fought to stay together?
Should we have let things go and left the past behind,
Should we have walked away and never
Never forget how wrong to never let it shine,

But I was afraid to let you down
Cos I was a child back then, just wanting to wait around
And did you believe our love could make it to the end?
And what would you say if I could make you smile again
If I could make you fly again, yeah.

Here we stand, trying to make some sense of everything
Here we stand again my friend,
How could I have known that you were strong
And I was down in need of everyone
I was fighting with myself, I was losing to myself

But I was afraid to let you down
Cos I was a child back then, just wanting to wait around
And did you believe our love could make it to the end?
And what would you say if I could make you smile again
If I could make you fly again, yeah.

Here we stand, trying to make some sense of everything
Here we stand again my friend,
How could I have known that you were strong
And I was down in need of everyone
I was fighting with myself, I was losing to myself

Here we stand, trying to make some sense of everything
Here we stand again my friend,
How could I have known that you were strong
And I was down in need of everyone
I was fighting with myself, I was losing to myself
