I wish I could fix it, I wish I knew what to say
But everything feels like a lie these days
Don't know how not to feel that way, oh
They're reaching for reasons, it's all gonna be okay
But everyone feels like a liar these days
Don't know how not to feel that way

But if you need me, I'll be right there
When you're dreaming all your nightmares
I'll come tackle the monsters
I'll find where they hide in the nighttime
If you need me, I'll be right there
When you're happy and when you're scared
I can still be your shoulder
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you

Have I spent too much time on what we used to be?
Am I making up details in the memories?
Have I got too caught up on the you and me thing?
Well, I'm hoping not 'cause I loved what we got
Out of sight, don't mean out out of mind
Not in your space, but you're still in mine
Hope you don't think I could leave you like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

But if you need me, I'll be right there
When you're dreaming all your nightmares
I'll come tackle the monsters
I'll find where they hide in the nighttime
If you need me, I'll be right there
When you're happy and when you're scared
I can still be your shoulder
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you, to you
Ah, ha, yeah
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you

Well, time is friends with distance
But they ain't no friends of ours
And that's fine because
Well, time is friends with distance
But they ain't no friends of ours
And that's fine because

If you need me, I'll be right there
When you're dreaming all your nightmares
I'll come tackle the monsters
I'll find where they hide in the nighttime
If you need me, I'll be right there
When you're happy and when you're scared
I can still be your shoulder
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you, to you
Ah, ha, yeah
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you
Ooh, yeah, yeah
I'll be by your side even if I'm not next to you
