I know that life ain't always good to you
I've seen exactly what it put you through
Thrown you around and turned you upside down
And so you, you got to thinking there was no way out
You started sinking and it pulled you down
It may be tough, you've got to get back up because

[Chorus]
You know that life ain't over yet
I'm here for you so don't forget
you can count on me cause I will carry you till you carry on

Anytime you need someone
somebody strong to lean on
well you can count on me to hold you till that healing is done

And every time you fall apart
you can hide here in my arms
and you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is gone


I wonder why nobody's waiting on you
I'd like to be the one to pull you through
Your darkest times, I'd love to be the light that finds you
I see a silver lining on your cloud
I'll pick you up whenever you fall down
Just take my hand and I will help you stand because

[Chorus]

Gone so you can live today
I seems so long till yesterday
Keep on counting on me to carry you till you carry on
Carry on

[Chorus]

Remember life ain't over yet
I'm here for you so don't forget
that you can count on me to hold you till that feeling is gone

    General Comment:Great song, great lyrics.
    I think it should be

    "It may be tough you've GOT to get back up
    Because you know that life ain't over yet"

    This song is so positive.
    If only more people know this(both the song and the support it gives)
    and if only more people support for each other and have friends and families to count on.
    Anyway, I'm glad such a song exists.

    General Comment:GREAT SONG!
    I think the lyrics are pretty self explanatory
    It is about how there is that one person you can always count on no matter what
    Through all the difficulties in life, theres that one person that will have your back
    and sometimes its hard to remember that especially when you are lonely or depressed
    so he wants the person to know that they can always count on him

    General Comment:I came across this song at the right time i guess depending on how you look at it. I think it means whatever you want it to mean. But to ME its about my girl and me...i was looking for good intro music for a baseball and i found this song, the same day I learned that my long time girlfriend (i'm too poor to marry her till i get out of college) has to have her second open heart surgery. we were just sitting in the car listening to the lyrics driving around and i pointed it out to her that it fits exactly how i feel...she couldn't listen to it for too long before she started to lose it, but to me it fits perfect and was theraputic to listen to in the time leading up to the surgery.

    "I'm here for you so don't forget
    You can count on me
    Cause’ I will carry you till you carry on
    Anytime you need someone
    Somebody strong to lean on
    Well you can count on me
    To hold you till the healing is done
    And every time you fall apart
    Well you can hide here in my arms
    And you can count on me
    To hold you till that feeling is gone"

    General Comment:Default is such an awesome band!!! This is song, for me, is about a guy being there for his best girl friend, but not his girlfriend. They are not romantically involved but their friendship means much more than that, and he's just assuring her he's always there to help, even when nobody else is.

    General Comment:WOW! This song is truly amazing! I heard it an hour ago and I already love it! It's such an uplifting song! It's like, no matter how down you are there's a person that you just completely trust and it'll be okay as long as they're there. Great music, great lyrics, great song!

    General Comment:I think of what Jesus would say. I identify strongly with this as a Christian song. I'm crying.
