I'll Be There
Who's your beacon when
Through dark waters you must tread,
And at times, who gives a damn
Whether or not you're dead?
Many more are more deserving than I,
But honestly dear, have you ever wondered why
People are charmed
And their accord instantly won,
Yet you often feel so empty
And know not to whom in times of trouble
You should run.
It's hard to trust in these doldrum days,
But in someone you must
And let them know your fears to allay.
I know I'm not here to show you the way;
There are others for this purpose
Whom you seek,
So please be careful, but don't be shy,
You are anything but weak.
Have discernment, but don't get lost
Asking why,
Save that for a different day.
And if I'm hard on you sometimes
Please just know that I care.
Lovers will come, and friends will move on,
But I promise you I'll always be there.
