If We Have Each Other – Alec Benjamin

She was 19 with a baby on the way

On the east side of the city, she was working every day

Cleaning the dishes in the evening she could barely stay awake

She was clinging to the her luck was going to change

And cross town she’d take a bus at night to a one bedroom apartment

And when she’d turn on the light

She would sit down at the table

Tell herself that its alright

She was waiting on the day, she hoped her baby would arrive

She'd never be alone

Have someone to hold

And when nights were cold she’d say

The world’s not perfect but its not that bad

If we got each other and thats all we have

I will be your mother, and I’ll hold your hand

You should know I'll be there for you

When the world’s not perfect

When the world’s not kind

If we have each other then we’ll both be fine

I will be you mother, and I’ll hold your hand

You should know I’ll be there for you

They were 90 and were living out their days on the west side of the city next where they got engaged

They had pictures on the wall of all the memories that they’d made

And though life was never easy they were thankful that they stayed

With each other and though times were hard

Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart

No they didn’t have the money to afford a fancy car

But they never had to travel cause they’d never be apart

Even at the end their love was stronger than the day that they first met

They'd say

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad

If we got each other and that's all we have

I will be your lover, and I’ll hold your hand

You should know that I’ll be there for you

When the world’s not perfect

When the world’s not kind

If we have each other we’ll both be fine

I will be your lover, and I’ll hold your hand

You should know that I’ll be there for you

You should know that I’ll be there for you

I’m 23 ad my folks are getting old

I know they don’t have forever and I’m scared to be alone

so I’m thankful for my sister even though sometimes we fight

When high school wasn’t easy she’s the reason I survived

I know she’d never leave me

And I hate to see her cry

So I wrote this verse to tell her that I’ll always by her side

I wrote this verse to tell her that I’ll aways be by her side

I wrote this verse to tell her that

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad

If we got each other and that's all we have

I’ll be your brother and I’ll hold your hand

You should know that I’ll be there for you

When the world’s not perfect

When the world’s not kind

If we have each other then we’ll both be fine

I’ll be your brother and I’ll hold your hand

You should know that I’ll be there for you

You should know that I’ll be there for you
