Beth Orton, Terry Callier - Lean On Me lyrics

You've seen sad times
Your eyes have told me so blue and bad times
You think that I don't know
But there'll be glad times
Just you wait and see
And I'll be your sunrise if you lean on me

I imagined I could comfort you
I had forgotten
The things that you'd been through
But here's one thing on which we can agree
When you're ready darling you can lean on me

And the love I bring
Will grow into a lasting thing
Put your heart on wings and set you free
And as you rise up into the clearing skies
Maybe you will realize you can lean on me

And lean on me, yeah you can lean on me
Lean on me, yeah you can lean on me
Lean on me, yeah you can lean on me, yeah
Lean on me you can lean on me

All your heartache hidden deep inside
So there's no telling
How many tears you've cried
But like the river
Told the weeping willow tree
I can hold your teardrops child
So lean on me

And the love I bring
Will grow into a lasting thing
Put your heart on wings and set you free
And as you rise up into the clearing skies
Maybe you will realize you can lean on me

And lean on me you can lean on me
Lean on me you can lean on me
And lean on me, yeah
You can lean on me, yeah lean on me
You can lean on me and lean on me, yeah
You can lean on me, yeah lean on me
You can lean on me and lean on me, yeah
You can lean on me, yeah lean on me
You can lean on me
