Will you be there
Andy Bell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It happens to us every time
Gotta tell it's best you know
Fool around at every turn
It happens to anyone
But there is one thing you should know
I've been searching every place I know
It's the last place in the world
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
I didn't mean to let you down
Just turned around and walked away
Babe, I know you're hurting bad
I never had enough to say
But know I will be 'round again
I've been looking for the love of my life
I've been searching 'round the world
I've been searching every place I know
It's the last place in the world
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be there? Will you be there?

We reach the point of no return
We come to a moment where there's no going back
It happens to us every time
This type of situation happens to us repeatedly
Gotta tell it's best you know
I must inform you, as it's important that you're aware
Fool around at every turn
We mess up every opportunity we get
It happens to anyone
This is a common occurrence that can happen to anyone
But there is one thing you should know
However, there's a crucial detail you need to be aware of
I've been searching 'round the world
I've traveled far and wide to find
I've been searching every place I know
I've explored every location that I'm familiar with
It's the last place in the world
Even so, I haven't found it yet
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Are you the person I'm looking for? Will you be there for me?
I didn't mean to let you down
I never intended to disappoint you
Just turned around and walked away
I left abruptly without explanation
Babe, I know you're hurting bad
I understand that you're in a great deal of pain
I never had enough to say
I didn't have the words to express what I was feeling
But know I will be 'round again
But be assured that I will come back around
I've been looking for the love of my life
I'm searching for the person I'm meant to spend my life with
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Are you the one I've been searching for? Will you be there for me?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Are you the person I can rely on? Will you be there for me when I need you?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Are you the one who can love me the way I need? Will you be by my side?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Will you be with me through thick and thin? Will you stand by me?
Will you be there? Will you be there?
Are you the one who can make my dreams come true? Will you be there?
