"We Belong Together" lyrics

I can see the empty in your eye
The world has come to push you down again
Your peace of mind is like a long-lost friend
It's hard to breathe. You count your beating heart
Another inch away from falling apart
Alone in darkness and you're lost again
Now you wonder why the world's closing in

'Cause we belong together

You've been holding up the world alone
Going the distance has been taking its toll
You don't think that you can rise again
The waves keep coming, and it's not even fair
All of this living has been taking your life
Doesn't feel like there's an end in sight
But don't forget we're still alive tonight
And I won't let you go without a fight

'Cause we belong together

If you're feeling lost
Because you fell off course
If you call my name
I'm never far away
On the mountain top
You feel your brave heart drop
If you call my name
I'm never far away

'Cause we belong together

You don't have to break, to break alone
You don't have to break. We can build something better
You don't have to break, to break alone
You don't have to break. You can be something better

You don't have to break, to break alone
(We belong)
You don't have to break. We can build something better
(We belong together)
You don't have to break, to break alone
(We belong)
You don't have to break. We can build it together
(We belong together)

If you're feeling lost
Because you fell off course
If you call my name
I'm never far away
On the mountain top
You feel your brave heart drop
And if you call my name
I'm never far away

Never far away

I can see the empty in your eye
Your skin is aching, and you're wondering why
You don't think that you can rise again
The waves keep coming, and it's not even fair

All of this living has been taking your life
(We belong)
Doesn't feel like there's an end in sight
Don't forget we're still alive tonight
(We belong)
And I won't let you go without a fight

'Cause we belong
'Cause we belong together
'Cause we belong
'Cause we belong together

We belong together
