You wanna go where the action is You wanna break the night wide open Something pure about the way you give With no thought of where you're goin' (Where you're goin', where you're goin') (Where you're goin', where you're goin') You've been everything to everyone It ain't like your life is perfect If you look inside, you'll come undone I'm just tryna' scratch the surface Under your skin Will you let me in? Oh-oh, oh-oh, I will be there To calm your nerves, to fight this feeling Oh-oh, oh-oh, I will be there To say the words "You are forgiven" You disappear when you feel too much Wish I knew where so I could follow Take me to the place where you escape And we can face the world tomorrow We lost the thrill But you're smilin' still Oh-oh, oh-oh, I will be there To calm your nerves, to fight this feeling Oh-oh, oh-oh, I will be there To say the words "You are forgiven" Are you windin' down? Are you carryin' your burden like a badge of honor now? Well, I'll be there at the end of the road Next time you're breaking down here alone Oh-oh, oh-oh, I will be there to calm your nerves Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, I will be there to say the words To save you from yourself (Oh-oh) to calm your nerves (Oh-oh) to calm your nerves Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh, I will be there To say the words, "I will be there" To calm your nerves To calm your nerves
