I don't need to be your king
I don't need to be your best friend
I don't need you not to lie to me everyday
I just need you to know who I am

You been making this life with me forever
You and I walk side by side
When I'm lost you are a beacon
And a shoulder when I cry

But since the clock has kept on turning
And I'm still stood right where I am
Have you lost your faith that this is certain?
Oh honey I can only do the best I can

Honey don't tell me that you're tired
Being tired don't make you blind
You must have seen how far that we've come lately
You must believe the man I am

I know our time has been so very very hard
And we've been living hand to mouth
I know I've asked for your support and faith
That we can make it despite the evidence we can't

But since the clock has kept on turning
And I'm still stood right where I am
Have you lost your faith that this is certain?
Oh honey I can only do the best I can

I know there's only so much anyone can offer
I know what's destined isn't written in the stars
But babe if your conviction starts to falter
Just remember who we are

'cause' I would hollow out my entire soul for them to listen
I would give everything away
I would run to the edge of the world for them
But I need your faith to stay

But since the clock has kept on turning
And I'm still stood right where I am
Have you lost your faith that this is certain?
Oh honey I can only do the best I can
