whenever you feel all alone
whenever you feel there is no reason to go on
when there is doubt in your heart
when there is no one in this world that you can find

who will give you support in everything you do
and who will believe that you will see things through

i will be there
i'll be there
i'll be the shoulder you can lean on
i'll be your friend you can depend on
i will be there
i will be there

there are times when things go wrong
yes there are times when you just feel you dont belong
there are days when things don't go right
yes there were days when you're not willing to fight

you will need someone who will tell you its okay
someone who believes, believes in you all the way

i will be there
i'll be there
i'll be the shoulder you can lean on
i'll be your friend you can depend on
i will be there
i will be there

i will be there
i'll be there
i'll be the shoulder you can lean on
i'll be your friend you can depend on
i will be there
i will be there

ooh, i will be there
i'll be there
i'll be the shoulder you can lean on
i'll be your friend you can depend on
i will be there
i will be there

coda:
i'll be your shoulder
i'll be your friend
your friend your friend your friend my baby

i will be there
hmm yes my baby
hmm i will be there
