I'll Be There For You
Marty Stuart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If somebody breaks your heart
And tears your world apart
Baby, I'll be there for you
If somebody treats you unkind
And brings troubles to your mind
Baby, I'll be there for you

I'll be there everyday
Loving you in every way
I'll stand beside you, your whole life through
I'll be true

If somebody hurts you bad
Makes you blue, makes you sad
Baby, I'll be there for you

I'll be there everyday
Loving you in every way
I'll stand beside you, your whole life through
I'll be true

If somebody makes you cry
I'll kiss every teardrop dry




Baby, I'll be there for you
Baby, I'll be there for you
