I'll be there to hold you by the hand
|
When you need someone to walk you home
|
You know that I'll be there to understand
|
When you call me on the phone
|
I'll be there to watch you when you sleep
|
When you close your eyes at night
|
And I'll be there to keep your secrets kept,
|
Cross my heart, hope to die
|
I swear each word is true
|
There's only one thing I wouldn't do
|
I'll be there when you need a real friend
|
I'll be there to listen to your secrets
|
I'll be there and give you all I've got
|
I'll be there when you paint your masterpiece
|
And I'll be right beside your every move
|
I'll give you my eyes so you can see
|
And I'll help you to find the things you've lost
|
When you're busting at the seams
|
I swear each word is true
|
There's only one thing I wouldn't do
|
I ain't gonna love you
|
I ain't gonna love you
|
Chorus:
|
Nobody wants you like I want you
|
Nobody needs you like I need you
|
You know I would beg and plead, get down on my knees
|
I'd do most anything, it's true
|
But I ain't gonna love you
|
I ain't gonna love you
|
'Cause I love you
|
I'll be there to love the things you love
|
I'll be the one who knows your middle name
|
Be the only one that you can trust
|
I'll give you the blood that's in my veins
|
I swear these words are true
|
There's only one thing I wouldn't do
|
I ain't gonna love you
|
Chorus:
|
'Cause nobody wants you like I want you
|
Nobody needs you like I need you
|
You know I would beg and please, get down on my knees
|
Do most anything for you
|
But I ain't gonna love you
|
I ain't gonna love
|
'Cause I love you
|
