If We Have Each Other Lyrics - Alec Benjamin

She was nineteen with a baby on the way 

On the east-side of the city she was working every day 

Cleaning dishes in the evening she could barely stay awake 

She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was going to change 

And, cross town she would take the bus at night 

To a one bedroom apartment 

And then when she'd turn on the light 

She would sit down at the table 

Tell herself that it's alright 

She was waiting on the day that she hoped her baby would arrive 

She'd never be alone 

Have someone to hold 

And when night's were cold she'd say

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad 

If we got each other and that's all we have 

I will be your mother and I'll hold your hand 

You should know I will be there for you 

And the world's not perfect 

When the world's not kind 

If we have each other then we'll both be fine 

I will be your mother and I'll hold your hand 

You should know I will be there for you 

They were ninety and were living out their days on the 

West-side of the city next to where they got engaged 

They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they made 

And their life was never easy they were thankful that they stayed 

With each other and though some times were hard 

Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart 

And they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car 

But they never had to travel because they'd never be apart 

Even at the end their love was stronger then 

The day that they first met 

They'd say 

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad 

If we got each other and that's all we have 

I will be your lover and I'll hold your hand 

You should know I will be there for you 

And the world's not perfect 

When the world's not kind 

If we have each other then we'll both be fine 

I will be your lover and I'll hold your hand 

You should know I will be there for you 

You should know I will be there for you 

I'm twenty three and my folks are getting old 

I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone 

So I'm thankful for my sister even though sometimes we fight 

When high school wasn't easy, she's the reason I survived 

I know she'd never leave me 

And I hate to see her cry 

So I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side 

I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side 

I wrote this verse to tell her that 

The world's not perfect but it's not that bad 

If we got each other and that's all we have 

I will be your brother and hold your hand 

You should know I will be there for you 

And the world's not perfect 

When the world's not kind 

If we have each other then we'll both be fine 

I will be your brother and hold your hand 

You should know i'll be there for you 

You should know I'll be there for you
