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
