Lean On Me Always

(album: Earthbound - 1975)

Sometimes the sea is angry
And she'll cut you to the bone
But I'll still be waiting when your ship comes in
I'm gonna take my, take my darling home

Lean on me always
Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear
My shoulder's there
And you can cling
(Cling) Cling to me always
I'll always be what you want me to
You can just lean on me
I'll always comfort you

And sometimes, the road's a little rocky
And you bruise your heel on a stone
But darling, all I ask is that you let me be there
To pick you up and carry on

Lean on me always
Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear
Hey, my shoulder's there
And you can cling
(Cling) Cling to me always
I'll always be what you want me to
You can just lean on me
I'll always comfort you, babe

(Lean on me always) Always
(Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear)
The load's too much to bear
(My shoulder's there) My shoulder's there
(And you can cling) Cling
(Cling) Cling
(To me always) To me always, baby
(I'll always be what you want me to)
What you want me to, yeah
(Just lean on me) Just lean on me

(Lean on me always) Always
(Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear)
I know the load's too much to bear, baby
(My shoulder's there) My shoulder's there, yeah, yeah
(And you can cling) Cling
(Cling to me always) To me always
(I'll always be what you want me to)
I'll always be what you want me to
You can just lean on me
I'll always comfort you, babe

(Lean on me always) Say it again
Always, baby
(Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear)
I know the load's too much to bear, hey
(My shoulder's there) My shoulder's there
(And you can cling) Cling
(Cling) Cling
(To me always)
(I'll always be what you want me to)
What you want me to, baby
(Just lean on me) Just lean on me, yeah

(Lean on me always) Yeah, always
(Sometimes I know the load's too much to bear)
I know the load's too much for you to bear
(My shoulder's there)
(And you can cling) Cling
(Cling to me always) To me always
(I'll always be what you want me to)
Tell me, baby
Just lean on me
