I'm shaped by the past
A past that's passed me by
From those that were kind
To those that ignited fire
Then you came along
And saw me for what I truly am
Bruised and broken just like you
I'm lost mostly without you
It's you and me against them all
Now I'm right where I belong
By your side through thick and thin
True love is where it all begins
Trials come and we may fall
But we're together through it all
We've beat it time and time again
True love is where it all begins
I came here to tell you that I'm sorry for all I've said and done
I know I've been wrong and now I fear you'll turn your back and run
But you haven't, you've stayed with me all through the years
Your light pierces the emptiness that once consumed me here
It's you and me against them all
Now I'm right where I belong
By your side through thick and thin
True love is where it all begins
Trials come and we may fall
But we're together through it all
We've beat it time and time again
True love is where it all begins
The days are growing shorter
While painful memories recur
And I sink to the depths where I'm alone
And I fear the unknown
I fear this body has little left to give
How much more of life is there really left to live
And darkness shrouds all that once was good
These thoughts of despair just won't let me be
And this disease consumes every part of me
Please come back and shine your light on me
It's you and me against them all
Now I'm right where I belong
By your side through thick and thin
True love is where it all begins
Trials come and we may fall
But we're together through it all
We've beat it time and time again
True love is where it all begins
And I sing to a new hope
Surely it will find me
One that will shine
Ever so brightly
I need you and the Lord
Please come and save me
Save me from myself
Save me from this dark cruel world
