I've Got Your Back

When the darkest nights of winter chill your very soul
And the late ones and the partying begin to take their toll
When Friday nights are empty but they used to be the best
And the creeping fear of Monday tramps all over Sunday's rest

When you're cold, lost and lonely far too far from home
And you spend the entire evening looking at your mobile phone
When your friends leave you stranded for a new found love
And you question the existence of a Lord on high above

When you feel the ice beginning to crack
I've got your back

When the life you had before feels like a foreign land
And there's no one there to hold you or take you by the hand
When the laughter in the bar sounds like it has a hollow ring
And that powder up your nose has just begun to sting

When you're oldest in the club but still the last to go home
All the taxis they have gone so you just make the walk alone
When you slept with him on the first date and he never calls again
And that one you really like turns out, just wants to be your friend

And you see the problems just starting to stack
I've got your back

I'm your Rock of Gibraltar
Air Force One
Last one standing
Here to get the job done
I watch from afar
You hurt it hurts me too
No one loves you like I do

When you're late for work again and the boss gives you that look
When you're just about to open another phoney self-help book
When that cheeky glass of red becomes a bottle every night
And there's so much that you want but you don't feel you have the right

And you feel like you just lost the knack
I've got your back
