When tears are in your eyes,

When you're down and out on the street, 
When eve-ning falls so hard 
I will com-fort you. 
I'll take your part. 
Oh, when dark-ness comes

Like a bridge ov-er trou-bled wa-ter 
I will lay me down. 
Like a bridge ov-er trou-bled wa-ter 
I will ease your mind.

All your dreams are on their way.

Oh, if you need a friend

I'm sail-ing right be-hind.
