[Verse 1] 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 I know along the way Then I heard you say [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] I see my life Flash across the sky So many times have I Been so afraid ooh And just when I Have thought I've lost my way You give me strength to carry on That's when I heard you say [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] When I'm weary Well, I know you'll be there And I can feel you When you say [Chorus] I promise you 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 I promise you I'm always there 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
