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 'Til I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride If I have things you need to borrow
I'll help you carry on For it won't be long 'Til I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear That you can't carry
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 'Til I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on
