Please be there for me
When I just need to cry.
Will you be there for me
When I just want to die?

Please be there as protection
When my walls are crashing down.
Will you be there as protection
When I can’t to naught but frown?

Please keep your arms wide open
For when I really need your hug.
Will your arms be wide open
When I need you to feel snug?

Please stand at my side
When I need a hand to hold.
Will you stand by my side
When life is cruel and cold?

Please give me a smile
When I’m confused and I’m in doubt.
Will you give me a smile
When I’ve lost faith in myself?

Please be the one to dry my tears
When my day’s been long and hard.
Will you be the one to dry my tears
When life’s dealt me lousy cards?

Please let me hold your hand
When I’m shaking and in fear.
Will you let me hold your hand
When the screams of my heart are all I hear?

Please stand strong as my shield
When I’m forced to battle life.
Will you stand strong as my shield
When times are hard, when I’m in strife?

Please be the one that loves me
When all the others are against me.
Will you be the one that loves me
When your love is all I need?

Please be with me forever
When I’m so distraught and oh-so sad.
Will you be with me forever,
When I’m so happy and so glad?
