When the rain is pouring in your face. When your heart says, Stop, before the end of the race. When no one is left to dry your tears. When the crowd is gone and there's no cheers. When the doubts run strong rent free in your mind. When you dream so much of just one last time. When your courage is challenged beyond your belief. I'll whisper my love and provide relief.

When the challenges you face go all uphill. When you feel like you're no longer part of the thrill. When there is no final kiss to say goodbye. As you sit alone crying in search of why. When your dreams of greatness lose all their hope. And the life you imagined becomes one of unknown. When you feel your dreams have all slipped away. I'll come running with my love and your worthy praise.

I'll never again let you stand alone. I'll call your name in the darkness to see you home. I'll do my best to make your dreams come true because of the love I feel for you. We'll rise above and break through the sadness. As we face all challenges on the path to greatness. Know in your heart I'll never let you stand in fear. In the quiet sadness of a forgotten cheer.

Have I told you about all the beauty I see? And how I love to sit and just hear your dreams? Tell me again about those moments of greatness. Because you speak it so well it's part of your brilliance. Tell me about when the crowds would cheer. When you were the best with not an ounce of fear. When your confidence was strong and soared like a rocket ship. And your greatness went unchallenged because you were simply the best.
