Lyrics

Game Size

Sometimes it's all right
To get angry
But it takes a man
To control his anger, Boy
No need for crude
And careless words
Even guys around you may use them
'Cause you're my hero, Boy

Each time you go through hard times
You'll grow; hang tough
You fight your battle, but
Keep in mind you'll always have

     (My love)
     A hand to hold
     (Here)
     When you need it
     (So)
     You can even cry on
     (My love)
     A hand to hold
     (Here)
     I'll be with you
     (So)
     All the way

     While you make it through
     Always, Boy, believe in yourself
     'Cause I do.
