Sometimes in our lives We all have pain We all have sorrow But if we are wise We know that there's Always tomorrow Lean on me When you're not strong I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on For it won't be long Till I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on Please swallow your pride If I have things You need to borrow For no one can fill Those of your needs That you won't let show Lean on me When you're not strong I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on For it won't be long Till I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on If there is a load you have to bear That you can't carry I'm right up the road I'll share you know If you just call me
