If you feel that you can't go on
'Cause all your hope is gone
And your life is filled with confusion
And happiness is just an illusion
And your world around is tumblin' down
Darlin', reach out
Reach out, reach out
Oh, reach out
I can tell by the way you hang your head
You're without of love, now you're afraid
And through your tears, you look around (Yeah)
But there's no peace of mind to be found
I know what you're thinking
You're alone now, no love of your own
Darlin', reach out
Reach out, reach out
Reach out for me, boy
I'll give you all the love you need
I'll be there
Hey baby, I'm gonna be right there
You can always depend on me
You can always depend on me
You can always call on me
Looka here
When you're lost and about to give up
'Cause your best ain't good enough
When you feel the world has grown cold
And you're driftin' on your own
And you need a hand to hold
And you need a little love
Reach out
I'll be there
Reach out
I'll be there
Reach out
I'll be there
Oh, to give you all the love you need
I'll try to give you all the love you need
I'll be there, believe me, to love and shelter you
Reach out, reach out
I'll be there to always see you through
To give you all the love you need
I'm gonna give you all the love you need
I'll be there to love and shelter you
I'll be there to always see you through
To give you all the love you need
I'm gonna give you all the love you need
I'll be there to love and shelter you
'Cause all your hope is gone
And your life is filled with confusion
And happiness is just an illusion
And your world around is tumblin' down
Darlin', reach out
Reach out, reach out
Oh, reach out
I can tell by the way you hang your head
You're without of love, now you're afraid
And through your tears, you look around (Yeah)
But there's no peace of mind to be found
I know what you're thinking
You're alone now, no love of your own
Darlin', reach out
Reach out, reach out
Reach out for me, boy
I'll give you all the love you need
I'll be there
Hey baby, I'm gonna be right there
You can always depend on me
You can always depend on me
You can always call on me
Looka here
When you're lost and about to give up
'Cause your best ain't good enough
When you feel the world has grown cold
And you're driftin' on your own
And you need a hand to hold
And you need a little love
Reach out
I'll be there
Reach out
I'll be there
Reach out
I'll be there
Oh, to give you all the love you need
I'll try to give you all the love you need
I'll be there, believe me, to love and shelter you
Reach out, reach out
I'll be there to always see you through
To give you all the love you need
I'm gonna give you all the love you need
I'll be there to love and shelter you
I'll be there to always see you through
To give you all the love you need
I'm gonna give you all the love you need
I'll be there to love and shelter you
