Sometimes in our live, we all have pain
  We all have sorrows, but if we are wise
  We know that there´s always tomorrow
  
  Lean on me (can you hear me now) 2-4 Family
  Lean on me (depend on me)
  
  I thought I heard you saying
  That you´ve got hard times
  If you feel that way
  Why don´t you drop me a line
  `Cause I´ll be there
  To lend you a shoulder to cry on
  I´m true blue the type of family member
  That you can rely on
  Fly on and hold up your head
  Open up your ears and listen up
  To what the dread said
  Dead is the only way you´re hopeless
  You´re still alive
  So you need to take the time to scope this
  
  Chorus:
  Lean on me, when you´re not strong
  And I´ll be your friend
  I´ll help you carry on
  (I´ll be your friend to the very end)
  For it won´t be long
  Till I´m gonna need somebody
  To lean on (can you hear me now)
  
  If thereis a load, you have to bear
  That you can´t carry
  I´m right up the road
  I share your load, if you just call me
  
  What ya going through, think
  I wouldn´t understand
  Was there for you when you lost your man
  Paid the costs for your faults
  Paved the way to save the day
  So who´s the friend and who´s the foe
  In the end it always shows
  And even though, I gave you doe
  When you was dead broke
  A place to rest you head
  When you had nowhere to go
  Never asked for a penny in return so
  When it´s cold, zero below
  I´ll be your hero
  
  Chorus
  
  Ooh ooh (help you carry on)
  (I´ll be your friend to the very end)
  (Can you hear me now)
  (Two to the four)
  
  So just call on me brother
  When you need a hand
  We all need somebody to lean on
  I just might have a problem, that you´d understand
  We all need somebody to lean on
  
  Chorus (2x)
