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!
when you're not strong
and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it won't be long
till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on
Please! (please)
swallow your pride (pride)
if I have things
you need to borrow
(For) for no one can fill
those of your needs
that you
that you wont let show
So just call (call) on me brother (hey)
when you need a hand (When you need a hand)
we all need (need) somebody to lean on!
(I just might have a problem)
I just might have a problem
that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on!
Lean on me!
when you're not strong
and I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
for it won't be long
till I'm gonna need
somebody to lean on
