Count Of Me
Whitney Houston Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there, don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say, count on

I can see that it's hurting you, I can feel your pain
It's hard to see the sunshine, through the rain, oh
I know sometimes it seems as if, it's never gonna end
But you'll get through it
Just don't give in cause you can

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there, don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say, count on

You can count on me

I know sometimes it seems as if, we're standing all alone
Be we'll get through it, 'cause love won't let us fall

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there, don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say, count on

There's a place inside of all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
It's much harder than it really is
But we'll get through it, just don't give in

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on




Call on me, I will be there, don't be afraid
Please believe me when I say, count on

I was about to die from an overdose in my apartment in Miami all alone after so many different drugsโ€ฆI went to grab my phone and I couldnโ€™t even see what I pressed and out of no where YouTube started and this song played. My heart was beating out of my chest and then the room turned white and I felt at peace. My heart slowed down and I survived. Jesus Christ is real people. He saved my life.

Today I have decided to follow Jesus for the rest of my life โค

Anybody noticed how Whitney knew how to collaborate with singers and by not overshadowing them with her divine vocal abilities. She learned early how to play with others in the sandbox. She is a phenomenal singer who had a great voice but knows how to taper it when singing with others. She had master control of her voice. My all time female vocalist. I miss you Whitney even before you left us. RIP beautiful lady.

@clementiadarko233

So true, I noticed that too. May her soul rest in peace
