You walked with me Footprints in the sand And helped me understand Where I'm going You walked with me When I was all alone With so much unknown Along the way Then I heard you say (Chorus) I promise you I'm always there When your heart is filled with sorrow And despair I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand I see my life Flash across the sky So many times have I Been so afraid And just when I Have thought I'd lost my way You gave me strength to carry on Thats when I heard you say (Chorus) I promise you I'm always there When your heart is filled with sorrow And despair I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand When I'm weary Well, I know you've been there And I can feel you when you say I promise you (you) I'm always there When your heart is filled with sadness (when your heart) And despair (and despair) I'll carry you When you need a friend (need a friend) You'll find my footprints in the sand (I promise you) (I'm always there) When your heart is full of sadness (sadness) And despair (And despair) I'll carry you (I'll carry you) When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand
