The firt step to heaven I will take in my life I am not afraid when I can hold you tight If there must be an answer Then there must be a prayer And you must be the angel When you're standing there So I lean on you, I lean on you My life is such a statement Of my hopes and despairs But nothing really matters Just as long as you're there You love me such honesty, You love with no gain You speak to me so tender And you never explain So I lean on you, I lean on you My baby she cares It's so easy to do My baby she tells me what to do She always tells me the truth My baby she cares It's so easy to do My baby knows what I'm gonna do That's why I lean on you I dream of an island, Of a fantasy place Where I can go to sometimes And nobody can trace Well such is the nature, The nature of love That when we dream it Sometimes means that we need love So I lean on you, I lean on you My baby she cares It's so easy to do My baby she tells me what to do She always tells me the truth My baby she cares It's so easy to do My baby knows what I'm gonna do That's why I lean on you So I lean on you, I lean on you I lean on you, so I lean on you (repeat chorus)
