Song Description
A big ballad about encouragement, support, faith, hope and companionship in the face of loneliness and abandonment. Superb female vocal singing this stately song driven by ukulele and acoustic guitar. Carefully placed synths/synthesizers and glockenspiel add color and bass and drums come in on the second verse. There is a lovely bridge with whispered voices of encouragement in the background.

Lyrics
Just when you think that all the rules have changed
You watch them leaving quicker than they came.
You know you're not on your own.
You're not on your own.
Even when your heart and flesh they fail you,
I'll be there to hold you up.
You're not on your own.
Even when the sun and moon forsake their own,
I'll be your light,
You're not alone.
Each day is wearing on you like a year,
Your face a diagram of every fear,
You know you're not on your own.
You're not on your own.
Even when your heart and flesh they fail you,
I'll be there to hold you up.
You're not on your own.
Even when the sun and moon forsake their own,
I'll be your light,
You're not alone.
Not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone tonight!
To find some joy within the bitterest end,
It is the calling of all women and men.
Oh no, you're not on your own.
You're not on your own.
Even when your heart and flesh they fail you,
I'll be there to hold you up,
You're not on your own.
Even when the sun and moon forsake their own,
I'll be your light,
You're not alone.
