Half of you has been taken
The other half is barely holding on
You set a course across the ocean
You had a dream
And now it’s all but lost

Chorus
But I want you to know
I won’t let you go
Oh my heart aches for you
Oh my heart breaks for you
Oh my heart bleeds for you

Whatever may come
I’ll stand by you
Who you are is amazing
A precious soul so beautifully made
It hurts to see your life fading
But Heaven knows every tear you’ve cried
Oh yeah

Chorus
(And I want you to know)

Whatever may come
I’ll stand by you
You are so amazing
Keep the light from fading

Behind the Song:
'Here is TAIT’s emotional side left completely unguarded. We’ve watched a lot of friends and family members go through absolutely horrific emotional experiences in their lives and this song is just a giant hand of love reaching out to hurting people and saying “You’re not alone. You will make it through this. I’m hurting and breaking for you inside my heart, and I’m here for you.” And God is present in your suffering even you can’t feel Him.' - Michael Tait
