Back To Back

When the call hasn't come,

Let me sit with you and wait

When the other kind does,

Let me help you bear the weight

Let me gather wood, when the fires gone out.

Let me pray for you, when you're filled with doubt

Hold your white knuckled hands

When our daughters out too late

Let me be the one, that's

Walking with you through the night.

When the morning comes

With it's brash and blinding light

Let me be the one, that's crawling

With you through the thorns

Back to back, we both were

Born to share this fight

When you haven't got no sleep,

Let me fix you a cup of joe.

Let me soak your shirt in tears,

When the tumor starts to grow

Let me rub your back when the children whine.

Let me push your cart through the five and dime.

Help you hobble down the hall with your iv line in tow.

Let me be the one, that's walking with you through the night.

When the morning comes, with it's brash and blinding light.

Let me be the one, that's crawling with you through the thorns.

Back to back, we both were born to share this fight

There's no one I'd rather walk with,

Through the brier or the flame.

Let me hold you in the darkness,

In the fire, in the rain

Let me be the one, that's walking with you through the night.

When the morning comes, with it's brash and blinding light.

Let me be the one, that's crawling with you through the thorns.

Back to back, we both were born to share this fight.

Back to back, we both were born to share this fight.
