 I bet you could've used a minute

  Just a little time alone

 But you let me be your little shadow
G#m          F#
Following wherever you would go
B          E
 Then I got a little older
G#m       F#

 I don't ever seem to tell you enough but

 I want you to know

 I come to you with all my secrets

 And you never, ever judge
B              E
 And when I'm falling in my weakness
G#m               F#
 You give me strength to stand back up
B             E
 No amount of miles could separate us
G#m              F#
 No place where I don't feel your love

 You say I'm the gift that heaven gave you
G#m        F#
But I'm the lucky one
