I’ll Be There

[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, love's a mystery
So hard to define
Darling, darling, more than I can see
'Cause love is so blind

[Pre-Chorus]
So many times he left you all night long, baby
Don't make no sense for you to carry on
Just give me a chance to know ya
I just want a chance to know ya
All my love I'll give to you
And girl, when we're through
I'll be there

[Chorus]
Call my name if you should want me
(I'll come running)
I'll come a-running to you, baby
(Just to make sure you're alright, don't you worry)
I'll be around, always around for you (Baby)
Long as you want me to

[Verse 2]
Darling, darling, you can look for me
And I can be found, baby, yes, I can
Sugar, sugar, you can lean on me — come on, baby
You know that I'm down, darling — yes, I'm here

[Pre-Chorus]
Ah, you've had too much to carry on your own, baby
But from now on you'll never walk alone
I'll shelter you in my arms, cover you with my charms
All my love I'll give to you
And girl, when we're through, I'll be there

[Chorus]
Call my name if you should want me
(Whenever you want me, yeah, I'll come running)
I'll come a-running to you, baby
(Just to make sure you're alright, don't you worry)
I'll be around, always around for you (Guess how long, baby?)
Long as you want me to (Oh, call my name)
Call my name if you should want me
(Whenever you want me, I'll come a-running, baby)
I'll come a-running to you, baby
(Just to make sure you're alright, don't you worry)
I'll be around, always around for you (Ah, guess, how long, baby?)
Long as you want me to (Ooh, darling)

[Bridge]
Just like a damsel in distress
Needing someone who would fight for her
Well, baby, I would
I know I could
I'll be your knight in shining armor
I will rescue you
Hey, baby

Yeah, haha, call my name

[Chorus]
Call my name if you should want me
(Whenever you want me, I'll come running)
I'll come a-running to you, baby
(Just to make sure you're alright, don't you worry)
I'll be around, always around for you (Ah, guess how long, baby?)
Long as you want me to (Call my name)
Call my name if you should want me
(Whenever you want me, I'll come a-running, baby)
I'll come a-running to you, baby
(Just to make sure you're alright, please don't you worry, baby)
I'll be around, always around for you (Ah, guess how long, pretty mama)
Long as you want me to

[Outro]
I'll be there, whenever you want me
I'll come running
Ah, just to make sure you're alright
Please don't you worry, baby
(I'll be around, always around for you)
You don't have to worry, I'll be around
Ah, I'll be there any time, baby, always there
