The world can kick you when you're down And it shows no mercy It makes them smile to see you frown But just wait and they will see This would kill the weaker man But it's been keeping me alive Through all the negativity Somehow I know I will survive And when the clouds have all passed by They'll see we'll both be standin' When sunshine turned to gray You saved me in my darkest hour You stood by me and stayed You gave me all my strength and power We've seen the others come and go Through the thick and through the thin And when we thought of lettin' go Somehow we knew we'd always win And when the dust finally settle We will both be still standin' When sunshine turned to gray You saved me in my darkest hour You stood by me and stayed You gave me all my strength and power And when I was left for dead And everybody turned away I heard every word you said And you helped me to set me free When sunshine turned to gray You saved me in my darkest hour You stood by me and stayed You gave me all my strength and power And when sunshine turn to gray In my darkest hour You stood by me and stayed Stay with me, my guiding angel.
