Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you were down in a gutter
Where the homeless shudder, trying to shake off the snow
If your tide was low, you lost your rudder
I'd show you where to go
If you were stuck out on the burning sand
Hair on fire in a blinding gale
I'd throw down a rope
And pull you out of your hell
In your darkest hour
Baby, I'd come running (I'd come running)
In your darkest hour
I'd light your way
Baby, don't give up (Don't give up)
I'll do everything in my power
To take even a minute of your darkest hour
[Instrumental]
Life can be a labyrinth
A maze of moments, a pyramid of plans
When all goes south, I'll be your compass
'Til your needle spins you north again
[Chorus]
In your darkest hour
Baby, I'd come running (I'd come running)
In your darkest hour
I'd light your way
Baby, don't give up (Don't give up)
I'll do everything in my power
To take even a minute of your darkest hour
[Instrumental]
All I really know is I never know
What's coming around the bend
But you should know you're not alone
Hang on and hold my hand
[Instrumental]
Ooh
[Instrumental]
In your darkest hour
Baby, I'd come running (I'd come running)
In your darkest hour
I'd light your way
Baby, don't give up (Don't give up)
I'll do everything in my power
To take even a minute of your darkest hour
[Outro]
Ooh
Baby, I'd come running (Don't give up)
Yeah, I'd light your way (Don't give up)
Ah, don't give up
Baby, I'd come running (Don't give up)
Baby, I'd come running (Don't give up)
Don't give up
Ooh (Don't give up)
Light your way, baby
Baby, I'd come running (Don't give up)
Don't give up, baby
