Song: Footprints In The Sand

Artist: Leona Lewis

Style: Pop
 
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 unknown Along the way 
then I heard you say 
I promise you I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow And despair¹
I'll carry you 
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand 

I see my life flash across the sky
so many times have I been so afraid
and just when I have thought I lost my way 
you give me strength to carry on
that's when I heard you say 
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 

when I'm weary²
well I know you'll be there and I can feel you
when you say 
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   
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.
