When Life Hits Hard

Monday came with a cracked phone screen

Rain on the steps and a tank half-empty

I wore my brave like a paper coat

But the wind found every hole

You showed up with two cups of tea

No grand speech, just “lean on me”

You took the boxes from the hall

And helped me breathe through it all

When the ground gives way below

You are the place my feet still know

Stand beside me when life hits hard

When the road breaks down and I lose my spark

Hold my hand through the falling stars

Don’t let go, don’t let go

Stand beside me when life hits hard

I’ll find my way back to who we are

Even with a broken heart

Don’t let go, don’t let go

Tuesday brought a letter in blue

A door closed tight, but I had you

We walked past the old café

Counting small wins along the way

You said, “A storm can change its mind

And leave a little gold behind”

So we watched the clouds turn red

With your warm jacket on my shoulders again

When the ground gives way below

You are the place my feet still know

Stand beside me when life hits hard

When the road breaks down and I lose my spark

Hold my hand through the falling stars

Don’t let go, don’t let go

Stand beside me when life hits hard

I’ll find my way back to who we are

Even with a broken heart

Don’t let go, don’t let go

And when your own sky turns gray

I’ll be the one who stays

No promise that the hurt won’t start

Just my shoulder next to your heart

Stand beside me when life hits hard

When the road breaks down and I lose my spark

Hold my hand through the falling stars

Don’t let go, don’t let go

Stand beside me when life hits hard

I’ll find my way back to who we are

Even with a broken heart

Don’t let go, don’t let go
