I can see you now by the light of the dawn
And the sun is rising slow
We have talked all night, and I can't talk anymore
But I must stay and you must go
You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
There are those who fail, there are those who fall
There are those who will never win
Then there are those who fight for the things they believe
And these are men like you and me
In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore
Leaving footprints by the sea
And when there was just one set of prints in the sand
That was when you carried me
You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
Lift your heart and think of me
And the sun is rising slow
We have talked all night, and I can't talk anymore
But I must stay and you must go
You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
There are those who fail, there are those who fall
There are those who will never win
Then there are those who fight for the things they believe
And these are men like you and me
In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore
Leaving footprints by the sea
And when there was just one set of prints in the sand
That was when you carried me
You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
Lift your heart and think of me

That was when you carried me"
Could be from the poem "Footprints in the Sand" - "During your times of trial and suffering when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."
