By the way

How do I know you love me
When you got the whole wide world needin’ your love?
How do I know you’re with me
When it’s all so big, it’d be hard keeping up?
How do I know you’re for real?
Will you still be here when the sun comes up?

How can I be sure you love me?
I know my act ain’t right, sometimes I mess it up
How can I be sure you’re with me
When others say the same but never stay enough?
How do I know you’re for real?
That you'll still be here when the sun comes up?

Tell you how
By the way you bring the sunshine to my mornings
Even when it’s dark and cold outside
By the way I feel no fear when there’s no hope here
I know you got my back alright
And everything will be just fine ‘cause I am your child

Tell you how
By the way you bring the sunshine to my mornings
Even when it’s dark and cold outside
By the way I feel no fear when there’s no hope here
I know you got my back alright
And everything will be just fine

How am I sure you love me, will keep me, won’t leave me, won’t quit
When the going gets going, when the going gets tough ‘n’ rough?
How am I sure you’re with me, yeah
When my eyes don’t see you clearly?

How am I sure that you’re for real?
That you’ll still be here when the sun comes up?
By the way I feel no fear
And you’re still right here when the sun comes up
