Lyrics
[verse]
If they took the money, took the fancy cars away
Would you still be standing next to me today
If the crowd all vanished, if the lights all fade
Would you still be calling me your own parade
[chorus]
If I got locked away and they took my life away
Would you still love me the same way
If I had nothing left, no crown upon my name
Would your heart still burn the same
Tell me if I lost it all, would you stay
[verse]
Everybody loves you when you're standing at the top
But the real ones stay when the whole thing has to stop
I just wanna know before I give my heart away
That you're here for me and not the games I play
[chorus]
If I got locked away and they took my life away
Would you still love me the same way
If I had nothing left, no crown upon my name
Would your heart still burn the same
Tell me if I lost it all, would you stay
[bridge]
Strip away the title, strip away the fame
Underneath it all I'm just a man who feels the same
I need someone who sees the heart and not the show
Tell me you'd still hold me even so
[chorus]
If I got locked away and they took my life away
Would you still love me the same way
If I had nothing left, no crown upon my name
Would your heart still burn the same
Tell me if I lost it all, would you stay
