Give me your hand, I'd like to shake it
I wanna show you I'm your friend
you'll understand if I can make it clear
it's all that matters in the end

Put it there, if it weighs a ton
that's what a father said to his young son
I don't care if it weighs a ton
as long as you and I are here, put it there
long as you and I are here, put it there

If there's a fight, I'd like to fix it
I hate to see things go so wrong
the darkest night and all these mixed emotions
it's getting lighter, sing along

Put it there, if it weighs a ton
that's what a father said to his young son
I don't care if it weighs a ton
as long as you and I are here, put it there
long as you and I are here, put it there
