Lyrics
You and me, we've come a long way you know, baby. But we've still got a long way to go, maybe. Even if we don't have too much to show for it. No matter what happens I'll always be here for you. In the hard times I know love will see us through. 'Cause you know I will do whatever I have to do, girl. Depend on me, I'll always be around. Depend on me 'Cause I won't let you down. Everything, every way, You know that every time, every day, I do it all for you. You can depend on me. Every hour and every minute, In all I do my heart is in it. Give my life for you, You can depend on me One, two, three, go! Depend on me Depend on me Depend on me

Actually, I thought about including this song and "MAKE YOU HAPPY" in dm2nd. However, due to troubles with the schedules of the designers, I had to postpone it. It's been a year since then, but I wonder if I can get it right. This song is no longer for me or Thomas anymore, but it's for everyone who loves dm and GF.
