When I am down and need to cry till morning, I know just where I am going. When I'm in need of sweet commiseration To speak out loud. Raise a glass to friendship And to knowing you don't have to go alone. We'll raise out hearts to share each other's burdens On this road. Every burden I have carried, Every joy--it's understood. Life with you is half as hard, And twice as good. With my good news you're dancing on the table: Baby's born, to celebration. The joy of life, oh what a sweet communion, Shared with you. Every burden I have carried, Every joy--it's understood. Life with you is half as hard, And twice as good. Every burden I have carried, Every joy--it's understood. Life with you is half as hard, And twice as good. I know we're growing older, Can you imagine what that will bring? It's all a mystery to me now, Except this one thing: It'll be half as hard, and twice as good.
