I Know That I Can Count On You

Many things have been told
By both people weak and bold
I know that one broken promise
Will never change the past
Crying out to you is all
The only thing that I can do before I fall
Yet there is an arm that reaches out
My name is the only thing it shouts
I grab hold and pull up strong
Trusting you was never wrong
Holding on is the only thing I can do
Because I know that I can count on you...
