I'll Be There - Keith Washington

You know, I’ve been there before

And I can understand how you feel, what you feel

So listen…

Something’s going on inside your mind

I can see right through your smile

Pull up a chair and sit with me

And let’s talk about you awhile

So tell me all that’s on your mind

Honey for you, I’ve got plenty of time

When you need a shoulder to cry on you can rely on me

When another love has come and gone

I’ll be there

As lovers often do

I’ll be there

When you need someone to see you through

Lady, I’ll be there for you

He’s hurt you once before I know

How could anyone be so cruel

To throw away a tender love like yours

You know he’s got to be a fool

But don’t worry baby, he’s history

And the future belongs to you and me

When you need a shoulder to cry on

You can rely on me

When another love has come and gone, lady

I’ll be there

As lovers often do

I’ll be there

When you need someone to see you through

Lady, I’ll be there for you

When another love has come and gone

I’ll be there

As lovers often do

I’ll be there

Just call my name, I’ll be around

Lady, I’ll be there for you

I hope that time has made you see

Baby there’s no better one for you than me

And maybe now that you are free

Baby this is our time

True love is the bottom line

It’s yours and it’s mine, ours for the taking

Put your trust in me, and I’ll guarantee

Everything’s gonna be alright

Oh lady, I’ll be there for you

When another love has come and gone

I’ll be there

As lovers often do

Just call my name, I’ll be around

I’ll be there for you
