Fair weather days
Can melt the ice on
Many a cold heart
Till the clouds roll in
And then you find
They're frightened of the dark

Some may come and some may go
They'll meet you high then move you low

But I will always be the one who cares
I'll be there

[Chorus]
I'll be there
Whenever you need a friend
Yeah, I'll be there
Whenever you need a friend
I will be there baby

I may have to go in body
But my soul is with you still
When you think of me
I'm by your side 
To guide you from all ill

We all need somebody 
Who we can always run to
And I will always be the one for you
I'll be there

[Chorus]

We all need somebody 
Who we can always run to
And I will always be the one for you
I'll be there

[Chorus]

I'll be there
Whenever you need a friend
I'll be there for you baby
I'll be there
Whenever you need a friend
I'll be there for you baby
