Verse
You were there before I knew
Who I was or what to do
But I knew you made me feel alive
I never knew I needed you
I never knew it'd be so soon
That I would come to realize

Pre 1
I need to change
If I wanna truly say

Chorus
I will be the man
that I need to be
Be there till the end
No matter what you need
I'll Stand up stand up stand up
I'll Stand up stand up

Verse 2
I swear to you I won't fall short
Where many others fell before
You will see I'm standing by your side
Time may try to get away
But I'll hang on, wont let it fade
I'll make every second worth your while

Pre 1
I'll never change
Once I can truly say
