You walked with me Footprints in the sand And helped me understand Where I'm going You walked with me When I was all alone With so much unknown Along the way Then I heard you say I promise you I'm always there When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand I see my life Flash across the sky So many times have I been so afraid, ooh And just when I I thought I'd lost my way You gave me strength to carry on That's when I heard you say I promise you I'm always there When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair And I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand When I'm weary Well I know you'll be there And I can feel you When you say I promise you Oh, I'm always there When your heart is filled with sadness and despair I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand When your heart is full of sadness and despair I'll carry you When you need a friend You'll find my footprints in the sand
