Soldier

Hold your breath, don't look down, keep trying

Darling, it's okay to be scared, it's frightening

At times it just feels like the world

Is trying hard to knock us down

But there's a reason that we're still here

When no one else is around

How we've grown

Every single day I'm proud

I swear, I won't

Let anything stop us now

I'm not a soldier

But I'll fight through our darkest of days

Get on my shoulders

And I'll carry you all of the way

'Cause there's no life worth living in

If you're not with me in it

I'm not a soldier

But you make me wanna be brave

Yeah, you do

Through the depths of despair, we've stumbled

And all that distance between us, we've crumbled

We've ignored all of the rumours and jealous disapprovals

And we've come out the other side with something beautiful

Oh, how we've grown

Every single day I'm proud

And now I know

There's nothing that can stop us now

I'm not a soldier

But I'll fight through our darkest of days

Get on my shoulders

And I'll carry you all of the way

'Cause there's no life worth living in

If you're not with me in it

I'm not a soldier

But you make me wanna be brave

Yeah, you do

Only we know where we're going

Every day we're gonna keep on growing

Learning from the tears and the mistakes

We're not perfect but we've come such a long way

As long as I got you by my side

I know what I wanna do in this life

One day when our kids fall in love

We can tell them that the odds were against us

I'm not a soldier

But I'll fight through our darkest of days

Get on my shoulders

And I'll carry you all of the way, woo-ooh

'Cause there's no life worth living in

If you're not with me in it

I'm not a soldier (soldier)

But you make me wanna be brave

Yeah, you do

Yeah, you do, yeah, you do

But you make me wanna be brave

Yeah, you do

Oh yeah, you do
