Lyrics : ~ Anywhere you are, I am near
               Anywhere you go, I'll be there
               Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
               How every single promise I keep
               Cuz what kind of guy would I be
                If I was to leave when you need me most

                            What are words
                    If you really don't mean them
                           When you say them
                            What are words
                   If they're only for good times
                           Then they don't
                            When it's love
                  Yeah, you say them out loud
               Those words, They never go away
               They live on, even when we're gone

            And I know an angel was sent just for me
             And I know I'm meant to be where I am
                           And I'm gonna be
                Standing right beside her tonight

                 And I'm gonna be by your side
         I would never leave when she needs me most

                         What are words
               If you really don't mean them
                        When you say them
                           What are words
                  If they're only for good times
                              Then they don't
                              When it's love
                    Yeah, you say them out loud
              Those words, They never go away
              They live on, even when we're gone

                  Anywhere you are, I am near
                  Anywhere you go, I'll be there
              And I'm gonna be here forever more
                   Every single promise I keep
                Cuz what kind of guy would I be
            If I was to leave when you need me most

              I'm forever keeping my angel close
