You and I must make a pact
We must bring salvation back
Where there is love, I'll be there

I'll reach out my hand to you
I'll have faith in all you do
Just call my name and I'll be there

I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you
Im so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, well that's all I'm after
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be there to protect you
With an unselfish love that respects you
Just call my name and I'll be there

If you should ever find someone new
I know he'd better be good to you
'Cause if he doesn't, I'll be there
Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah
I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name
I'll be there

(just look over your shoulders, honey - oo)

I'll be there, I'll be there, whenever you need me
I'll be there
Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah

I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name
I'll be there ...
