I'll Be There
S Club Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because all of your hope is gone
And your life is filled with much confusion
Until happiness is just an illusion
And your world around is crumbling down, darlin'
(Reach out) Ccome on girl, reach on out for me
(Reach out) reach out for me
I'll be there with a love that will see you through
When you feel lost and about to give up
'Cause your best just ain't good enough
And you feel the world it has grown cold
And your drifting out all on your own
And you need a hand to hold, well darlin'
(Reach out) come on girl, reach out for me
(Reach out) reach out for me
Ah, I'll be there to love and comfort you
And I'll be there to cherish and care for you
Ow
I'll be there to always see you through
I'll be there to love and comfort you (yeah)
Well, I can tell the way you hang your head
You're without love and now you're afraid
And through your tears you look around
But there's no peace of mind to be found
And I know what your thinking
You're alone, no love of your own, but darlin'
(Reach out) come on girl
(Reach out) ow, come on
I'll be there to give you all the love that you need
And I'll be there you can always depend on me (woo)
I'll be there to give you all the love that you need
