When life’s going rough   And time has got you down   Don’t think you’re alone   And baby please don’t frown   You say you’re sick of this world   And the pain you went through   But please don’t give up   You know I’ll be here for you.      I see the tears in your eyes   And the pain in your heart   I hear the sound of your cries   As you lay in the dark   But no matter what may come   Or the things you’ll go through   I just want you to know   That I’ll be here for you.      When you just can’t smile   And you need a friend   Whatever goes wrong   I’ll be here till the end.   But I ask you one thing   One thing that you could do   Please be there for me   When what I need is you.      If it’s a hope that you want   And a love that is good   Well I know that I’ll   Give you all that I could.   When you cry those sweet tears   And you’re feeling so blue   I just want you to know   That I’ll be here for you.
