  • When I feel every thing in my life's a mess
    And I can't lift my head up above the rest
    When all I touch I can't hold on to
    Then I cover my eyes and try to picture you

    'Cause your belief in me's so strong
    I won't give in I will carry on
    Cause I know you're the one

    When the storm has broken you'll be waiting
    When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming
    When the war is over you'll be waving the flag
    I know you'll be the last man standing with me

    Yeah yeah

    When I know in my heart I have my good and bad days
    And I wish I could hide that side of me away
    But you're so blind - I can do no wrong
    And I try to explain where the pains come from

    And I see you as my shining star
    To live up to and be where you are
    If I can reach that far

    When the storm has broken you'll be waiting
    When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming
    When the war is over you'll be waving the flag
    I know you'll be the last man standing with me

    Never thought I'd find some one to be here with me
    I have so much trust in you you're all that I see
    Do you know the difference you made to who I am
    I couldn't find a better man
    You showed me how to understand

    When the storm has broken you'll be waiting
    When the big wave crashes you'll be swimming
    When the war is over you'll be waving the flag
    I know you'll be the last man standing with me

    You and me
    Oh you and me
    Oh oh you and me Writer/s: GRAHAM PATRICK KEARNS, JUDIE TZUKE, LUCIE SILVERMAN, MICHAEL NEIL PEDEN
