[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I heard the voice of redemption
For me there is no exemption
I started praying
I heard the voice of satisfaction
Needing me for benefaction
I started pleading
I heard the bells begin to chime
Warning me, oh Lord
Don't let this be my time
Don't let this be my time
[Chorus]
I'll be there for you, when you walk through the fire
I'll be there for you, when the flames get higher
When nothing fits and nothing seems right
'Til the very last breath of my life, I'll be there for you
I'll be there
[Verse 2]
You saw me slide, you saw me fall
We kept our pride through it all
We started screaming
When skies are dark, no sun shines through
I know I see the light in you
We stopped dreaming and started believing
[Chorus]
Oh, I'll be there for you, when you walk through the fire
I'll be there for you, when the flames get higher
When nothing fits and nothing seems right
'Til the very last breath of my life, I'll be there for you
I'll be there...
[Bridge]
In my hour of need
You were there, always
Now it's time for me to be there for you too, always
Always
[Outro]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll be there, I'll be there for you
Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll be there, I'll be there
You saw me slide, you saw me fall
We kept our pride through it all
When skies are dark, no sun shines through
I'll be there, I'll be there for you
Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll be there, I see the light in you
[Verse 1]
