We crossed paths as fate came to be
At a time that I never thought I'd see
The years flew by stood the test of time
We'd been through hell came out the other side
Don't know who I am
Don't know where I've been
Didn't mean to fall in love
But you know this was a blessing in disguise
You've been living with the weight of the world
On your shoulders
Tell me darling why you left it
So damn long
Don't have the words to sing you to sleep
But if I have you then that's all I need
We're just a couple of introverts
Listening to punk rock and wearing band t-shirts
Still the same today as the day we met
What was to come we just hadn't figured out yet
You've been living with the weight of the world
On your shoulders
Tell me darling why you left it
So damn long
And if the words come out tonight
I'll cross my heart and hope to die
I'd run for miles if you asked me to
Put the weight of the world
On my shoulders
Remember all the times you said
What goes on inside my head
You have me and I have you
Together we are bulletproof
You've been living with the weight of the world
On your shoulders
Tell me darling why you left it
So damn long
And as the stars come out tonight
I cross my heart and hope to die
I'd run for miles if you asked me to
Put the weight of the world
On my shoulders
And I will carry you
