You say I don't understand, I tell you I do,
I know what you're going through
So you shut me out, and I take it in
Can't figure out what to do
I tell you it's wrong, you say you know,
But you're still choosing this path to follow
You take to the road, and leave me to think
Could I have stopped you from going?
Stand up tall, don't you raise your white flag in the air
Don't say it's too late to show how much I care
Forgive me, maybe your road would have some different bends
Had I known how to be your friend
I tell you to change, you say you can't
I couldn't hear what you really meant
Your silent screams go over my head
Disguised as indifference
Stand up tall, don't you raise your white flag in the air
Don't say it's too late to show how much I care
Forgive me, maybe your road would have some different bends
Had I known how to be your friend
You don't need me to say this is not the right way, what you need is my hand
I saw that look in your eyes that night and now I understand
You don't want to hear what you shouldn't be doing, only now i see it
Love is all, love is all you needed
Love is all, love is all you needed
Stand up tall, don't you raise your white flag in the air
Share your burden with me I'm telling you now how much I care
Forgive me, maybe your pain could have been a little less
Had I known how to be your friend
Please let me be your friend
