Rachel:
You're not alone
Together we stand
I'll be by your side, you know
I'll take your hand

When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in (New Directions: Woooah)

No I won't give in (New Directions: Woooah)

So, (keep holding on)

Finn and Rachel:
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Finn:
So far away I wish you were here
Before it's too late, this could all disappear

Rachel and Finn:
Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side
I will fight and defend (New Directions: Woooah)
I'll fight and defend (New Directions: Woooah)
Yeeah, yeeah!

Hear me when I say, when I say I believe
Nothing's gonna change, nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be will work out perfectly
