Like a guide through a thorny forest
when you have hit rock bottom, my friend
and are fighting a raging battle
take my hand . . . (oh yes, oh yes)
When you are tired
and feeling lost
and your tears are flowing
and you are in a frozen land
and all your friends have fled
oh yes, take my hand
Like a guide through a thorny forest
when you have hit rock bottom, my friend
and are fighting a raging battle
take my hand . . . (oh yes, oh yes)
I will be right there beside you
I will be your wings so you can fly
I will hold your burden
When your head is full of echoes
and you hang your head
and ghosts fill your nights
I will be your friend always
oh yes, just take my hand
When your life is uncertain
and you are full of broken dreams
and have no direction
no up or down
Like a guide through a thorny forest
when you have hit rock bottom, my friend
and you are fighting a raging battle
take my hand . . . (oh yes, oh yes)
I will be your wings
I will hold your head up high
and in the sun you will shine
and your thorny forest will become enchanted
oh yes, just take my hand, friend
I will be your wings, I will be your wings, wings, wings . . .
