Everybody needs a friend now and then To come and pick their heart up again When everything gets shattered Everybody needs someone to understand Someone just to come and hold their hand To be there through disaster And I'm going to be there for you
So when you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on And when you're lonely I'm never gonna leave you so just hold on And when you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on
You say you don't need anyone But I know when you come undone That you might change your story I don't know if you're listening But when you feel like giving in I'm going to hold you in these arms Cuz all I am is a word away
So when you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on When you're lonely I'm never gonna leave you so just hold on When you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on Oh yes I do
And if you're on top of the world And you fall down You're shaking inside And you can't find your ground When you lose yourself, God will find you Hey, you need to know that, the door is open When your broken Come on step on through Step on through
Ohhhhh, when you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on When you're lonely I'm never gonna leave you so just hang on When you're crying I want to be the shoulder you lean on Oh, yes I do So just hold on
