You saw me by the river
Wrapped in my dark and lonely cloak
Made from yesterday’s sorrows
On the edge of winter
Sitting alone and so remote
In my fear of tomorrows

You sat beside me softly
Near enough to touch me
Then you held me gently
In your strong and safe embrace
Then you looked at me and said…

It’s okay, We Got This
Don’t worry, We Got This
It’s alright, We Got This
We Got This

Evening falls the moon is new
I see you crouched beside the cold
In a dark dream that harms you
But the fire I built for you
Is burning bright and burning bold
And the love from it warms you

I sit beside you softly
Near enough we’re touching
Then I hold you gently
In my strong and safe embrace
Then I look at you and say…

It’s okay, We Got This
Don’t worry, We Got This
It’s alright, We Got This
It’s okay, We Got This

Now I hold you in my heart
My love is all around you,
Protection from the night
And like my own sweet child
I will rock you in my arms
Into the morning light

We sit beside you softly
Near enough we’re touching
Then we hold you gently
In our strong and safe embrace
Then we look at you and say… It’s okay

We Got This
We Got This
We Got This
Hey! We Got This

We Got This
We Got This
We Got This
Hey Ernie! We Got This
