When you're losin' direction Baby you can depend on me For a little love and affection You can depend me If ya feel broken hearted and you just can't get started You can depend on me Ya know it's never easy and when you're feelin' blue There'll be times you feel so empty ya sometimes I feel it too Chorus Like sister to brother - father to mother We live for each other - we're lover to lover As deep as an ocean - filled with emotion I'm forever open - can't you see Baby you can depend on me Depend on me - depend on me For someone to rely on and a shoulder to cry on You can depend on me If you're in need of some kindness and you can't seem to find it You can depend on me Well there ain't no need to worry you know we'll get along Those dark clouds may surround you but together we'll be strong Chorus Your love is a guiding light I've been watchin' it shine - shine on baby When hard times are all around And there's miles and miles of dirty road - depend on me There's no need to carry that heavy load - depend on me When hope is gone and all is lost Just reach out - take my hand I'll be there - I'll be your man Depend on me
