Mother cannot guide you
Now you're on your own
Only me beside you
Still, you're not alone
No one is alone, truly
No one is alone

Sometimes people leave you
Halfway through the wood
Others may deceive you
You decide what's good
You decide alone
But no one is alone

I wish
I know

Mother isn't here now
Wrong things, right things
Who knows what she'd say?
Who can say what's true?
Nothing's quite so clear now
Do things, fight things
Feel you've lost your way?

You decide, but
You are not alone
Believe me
No one is alone
No one is alone
Believe me
Truly

You move just a finger
Say the slightest word
Something's bound to linger
Be heard

No one acts alone
Careful
No one is alone

People make mistakes
Fathers
Mothers
People make mistakes
Holding to their own
Thinking they're alone

Honor their mistakes
Fight for their mistakes
Everybody makes
One another's
Terrible mistakes
Witches can be right
Giants can be good
You decide what's right
You decide what's good

Just remember
Just remember
Someone is on your side
Your side
Your side
Someone else is not

While we're seeing our side
Our side
Our side

Maybe we forgot
They are not alone
No one is alone

Hard to see the light now
Just don't let it go
Things will come out right now
We can make it so

Someone is on your side
