Lean on Me

We all need someone to lean on

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 (lean on me)
When you're not strong (when you're not strong)
And I'll be your friend (I'll be your friend)
I'll help you carry on (help you carry on)
For (for) it won't be long (it won't be too long) 'til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on (lean on me)

Please (please)
Swallow your pride (swallow your pride)
If I have things (if I have things)
You need to borrow
For (for) no one can fill (no one can fill)
Those of your needs
That you won't let show

You just call on me, brother (call on me)
When you need a hand (lean on me)
We all need somebody to lean on (lean on me)
I just might have a problem (call on me, lean on me)
That you'd understand (lean on me)
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me (lean on me)
When you're not strong (when you're not strong)
And I'll be your friend (I'll be your friend)

For (for) it won't be long (it won't be too long)
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on (lean on me)

We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear (ooh-oh)
That you can't carry (need someone to carry)
I'm right up the road (I'm right up the road)
I'll share your load, yeah (whoa)
If you just call me

When the year two thing happened
And we had one shot at doing it
And we took that one shot, and we ran with it
