Lyrics

And all I know
And all I've done
I'd take you along
Though you're not here
I can feel you there
I'd take you along
And when I'm scared
I imagine you there
Tell me to be brave
So I will be brave for you
Stand on a stage for you
Do the things that I'm afraid to do
I know you want me to
I will be brave
I know you'd want me to
I see things change and I watch them grow
And I know you do too
When things don't make sense
I have courage
Because of you
And when I'm scared
I imagine you there
Tell me to be brave
So I will be brave for you
Stand on a stage for you
Do the things that I'm afraid to do
I know you want me to
I will be brave
I will be brave
Do the things that I'm afraid to do
I know you want to
There are things I wish I didn't know
I'll try my best to let them go
