| When the lights of happiness | 
| Starts growing dim | 
| And nobody seems to care | 
| When the joy and comfort | 
| Are growing slim | 
| I’ll be waiting there | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Believe you | 
| When you feel that your mind | 
| Is burdened by a heavy load | 
| That nobody wants to share | 
| And you feel | 
| You’re walkin' such a lonely road | 
| Oh, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Believe me | 
| I’ll be waiting there | 
| Call me to help bring you through | 
| Because I’ve seen some hard times too | 
| And when the world is closing in on you | 
| And you want to run and hide | 
| I’ll be standing by your side | 
| When you’re down at the bottom | 
| And you can’t see the top | 
| And all you feel is despair | 
| Just keep the faith | 
| And don’t ya ever stop | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Mm, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Believe me | 
| I’ll be waiting right there | 
| In your time of need | 
| I’ll be waiting right there | 
| I’m a friend indeed | 
| When you feel you’re burdened | 
| By such a heavy load | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Ain’t ya glad, ain’t ya glad | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| I’ll be waiting there | 
| In your time of need | 
| I’ll be waiting there | 
| I’m a friend indeed | 
| When you feel you’re walking down | 
| Such a lonely load | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting there | 
| Ain’t ya glad, ain’t ya glad | 
| Oh, I’ll, I’ll be waiting right there | 
| Believe me, baby… |
