[Verse 1]
You were there, the first time I stumbled
Will you be there each time I fall
Will you care for me forever
Darling promise you will love me most of all
[Chorus]
You can count on me, I'll be true
Do you feel the same way I do
When times get hard, will you see me through
What I need to know, can I count on you
[Verse 2]
When the years have turned my hair to silver
Will you still wear that band of gold
Say you'll be here always beside me
Will I still have your hand to hold
[Chorus]
You can count on me, I'll be true
Do you feel the same way I do
When times get hard, will you see me through
What I need to know, can I count on you
