Will you live like me In a world run by desire? Will you wake from wealthy dreams and not be tired? Will you work like me To lift the conversation higher? Will you be cool like water putting out the fire? How can you be free from all this sorrow? Will the ones you love today be gone tomorrow? And if angels don't have answers to your prayers Oh, i will be there Oh, i will be there And if who you love don't want your love, what then? Do you cut a deal with love and run again? You'll see love contains the meaning of despair Will you think like me? Will you have your mother's fire? Maybe the way we are will not be how you're wired Will we do right by you? Will you have what you require? To make your days on this earth be not so dire Can you choose to lead if no one follows? And if we fail today, must you tomorrow? Sanctify your answer, not your prayer Oh, and i will be there Yeah, i will be there Yeah, i will be there And even when it all becomes too much When you're growing old and feeling out of touch Listen to this song and just take care And know that i will be there Yeah, i will be there No, i swear that i will Yeah, i promise i will Little girl, i'm crying...
