I'Ll Be There

When you’re on the verge of tears, look right next to you and I’ll be there.

If not physically, then mentally and maybe even emotionally.

It doesn’t matter that you left me standing in the dust

When I said I’d be there, I meant as a friend to love and  someone to trust

I’ll listen when you need somebody to talk to, 

But you have to promise you’ll listen to me when I need you
