[Verse 1]

Holding tightly on to something you believe

It's getting harder, when we practice to deceive?

But you know, when night falls?


[Chorus]

I will be there, I will be there

I will be there to hold and guide you

Dark is the night that hides the light from your eyes

I will be there to hold and guide you


[Verse 2]

Come the morning, life is keeping you in chains

But don't you be afraid to call out my name

I come to you in the blue rain

Let the tears fall


[Chorus]

I will be there, I will be there

I will be there to hold and guide you

Dark is the night that hides the light from your eyes

I will be there to stand beside you


[Bridge]

Now I can see the shadows over you

Thunder rolls, but the light breaks through

And there are times in my life

I know that love is true and I need you now


[Interlude]


[Chorus]

I will be there, I will be there

I will be there to stand beside you

I won't let another night, steal the light from your eyes

(I will be there) I will be there

I will be there to hold and guide you

When the dream inside you cries, just lift up your eyes?


[Outro]

(I) I will be there, will be there

To hold and guide you

(I will be there)

I will be there to stand beside you

(I will be there)

To hold and guide you

(I will be there)

Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

(I will be there)
