There are times it gets so hard you can cry
This world can be so cold
And sometimes I just don't know
How we ever survive
Listen, baby
[CHORUS 1]
Everybody needs a hand to hold
To pick you up when you fall
Everybody needs someone
And you can hold on to me
All night long
[CHORUS 2]
And if you lean on me
I will lean on you
Put your hand in mine
We will make it through
I'll be your backbone, girl
Shelter from the storm
When it's cold outside
I will keep you warm
Yeah, if you lean on me
When the sky is gray
And you think there's no way the sun will ever shine
Just put your hand in mine
It'll be all right
Yes, it will
[CHORUS 1]
[CHORUS 2]
And you know this heart
Will always be around
(Always be around)
Ooh yeah
And I'll be the one
Ain't gonna let you down
(I'll never let you down)
If you lean on me
[CHORUS 1]
[CHORUS 2] (2x)
