You need a love that will not change
You want a lover to remain
Forever yours
Oh, but you don't have to worry
You never have to fear it
Through thick and thin I'll always be here
I'll be your bridge
Over and through troubled waters
You'll never have to face it alone
And when the world
Seems to treat you unfair
Baby, for you, I'll always be there
I won't be no fairweather friend
I'll be there 'til the end
Even through stormy weather
Time and time again
I won't be no fairweather friend
I'll be there 'til the end
Even through stormy weather
Time and time again
Sometimes I know it's wrong for you
And then there are times you're feeling blue
Feel so much pain
Oh, but I'm the kind of person
That can take the hurt away
You never have to suffer again
I'll be your strength
To carry you over the mountain
To lift you up when you're falling down
Baby be strong
You can believe in me
'Cause I'm your friend
And I'll always, always, always be right there
HOOK
Oh baby, for you, I'll always be there, oh
HOOK
Baby I know what's right for you
Maybe sometimes you're feeling blue
But I won't let ya, won't let ya
You're never gonna face no pain again
I'm gonna be there to lift you up
Baby call my name
And I'll be there
