I Will Be There lyrics

But I'm here all alone

Waiting for you to call, babe

Guess I was just a fool

The way I treated you

But I didn't care at all

Oh darlin', won't you please give it another try

I want to be there by your side

Through the darkest nights

And the coldest days

You can call on me

I will be there, I will be there

When you feel some doubts

And you're ever in need

You can count on me, babe

I will be there, I will be there

This time, I will be there

Last night, I lost my head

Should not have ever said

Those cruel things to you

(Yeah, I said 'em too)

Cause now I realize

How anger makes you blind

Makes you say what isn't true

You will never hurt this way again

Cause from now on, I'll be your friend

Through the darkest nights

And the coldest days

You can call on me

I will be there, I will be there

When you feel some doubts

And you're ever in need

You can count on me, babe

I will be there, I will be there

This time, I will be there

You're on my mind

Every moment of every day

I've got to have you

In a very special way

Oh darlin', just keep on

Loving me the way you do

And I will be there, I will be there

Just call my name

Through the darkest nights

And the coldest days

You can call on me

I will be there, I will be there

When you feel some doubts

And you're ever in need

You can count on me, babe

I will be there, I will be there

Don't you know that I will be there?

Yes I will, babe

Don't you know that I will be there?

Any time you want to

I tell you, I will be there

This time, I will be there
