When You Need Me...

Two arms that cannot hold you
A smile that cannot heal
Just know that when you need me
I'll be waiting still.

The words I cannot tell you
The comfort I can't share
Just know that when you need me
I will still be here.

A love that seems so worthless
The tears that you can't see
Just know that when you need me
By your side I'll be.

I've been your friend through good times
Now bad times take their toll
Just know that when you need me
I'll be waiting still.

I feel your pain so keenly
A portion I can't bear
Just know that when you need me
I will still be here.

You need time alone, I know
To get you through your grief
Just turn when you need me, 'cause
By your side I'll be.
