[Intro]
Oh, whoa, oh
Ooh, yeah yeah
You know I can (Can)
I will (Will), ooh
Listen, baby

[Verse 1]
Sometimes the world is a dark and lonely place
Remember my love is always here for leading on, oh baby
Sometimes it feels just like you've lost your way
So if you need a guide in life, then baby, let me be the one
Ooh yeah, oh
Nobody understands your secret dreams your heart-felt plans
When no one appreciates the love that you need
Well, then save it for me

[Chorus]
Because I can (Can), I will (Will)
If you want, you know you can trust me
My hand (Hand) is right here (Here)
So hold on

[Verse 2]
It's breaking my heart to think you would ever cry
How can a tear ever dare to fall from your sweet eyes?
They're so beautiful
Nobody understands you're secret dreams, your heart-felt plan
When no one appreciates the love that you need
Well, then save it for me

[Chorus]
Because I can (Can), I will (Will)
If you want, you know you can trust me
My hand (Hand) is right here (Here)
So hold on
Baby, you know that
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you strong
I'll be there for you
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you warm
If you want me to

[Bridge]
I know you're ready for the love that you deserve
So whenever you want me, just say the word

[Chorus]
Because you know that I can (Can) and I will (Will)
If you want, you know you can trust me, baby
My hand (My hand) is right here
So hold on
Gotta hold on
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you strong
I'll be there for you
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you warm
I can (Can) and I will (Will)
If you want (If you want me to)
My hand (My hand) is right here (Is right here)
So hold on
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you strong
I can (Can), I will (Will)
Make you warm
Make you warm, yeah, baby
I can (Can) and I will (Will)
If you want, yeah
My hand (My hand) is right here
