Sometimes in our live, we all have pain
We all have sorrows, but if we are wise
We know that thereВґs always tomorrow
Lean on me (can you hear me now) 2-4 Family
Lean on me (depend on me)
I thought I heard you saying
That youВґve got hard times
If you feel that way
Why donВґt you drop me a line
`Cause IВґll be there
To lend you a shoulder to cry on
IВґm true blue the type of family member
That you can rely on
Fly on and hold up your head
Open up your ears and listen up
To what the dread said
Dead is the only way youВґre hopeless
YouВґre still alive
So you need to take the time to scope this
Chorus:
Lean on me, when youВґre not strong
And IВґll be your friend
IВґll help you carry on
(IВґll be your friend to the very end)
For it wonВґt be long
Till IВґm gonna need somebody
To lean on (can you hear me now)
If thereis a load, you have to bear
That you canВґt carry
IВґm right up the road
I share your load, if you just call me
What ya going through, think
I wouldnВґt understand
Was there for you when you lost your man
Paid the costs for your faults
Paved the way to save the day
So whoВґs the friend and whoВґs the foe
In the end it always shows
And even though, I gave you doe
When you was dead broke
A place to rest you head
When you had nowhere to go
Never asked for a penny in return so
When itВґs cold, zero below
IВґll be your hero
Chorus
Ooh ooh (help you carry on)
(IВґll be your friend to the very end)
(Can you hear me now)
(Two to the four)
So just call on me brother
When you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem, that youВґd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Chorus (2x)
