Will You Be There / Lyrics
Hold me Like the river Jordan And I will then say to thee You are my friend
Carry me Like you are my brother Love me like a mother Will you be there?
Weary Tell me will you hold me? When wrong, will you scold me? When lost will you find me?
But they told me A man should be faithful And walk when not able And fight 'til the end But I'm only human
Everyone's taking control of me Seems that the world's got a role for me I'm so confused, will you show it to me? That you'll be there for me and care enough to bear me
