I'll Be There Lyrics - Just No Better Way - A Change Of Pace

You've felt alone since you were only seven 

Your mother didn't have a clue what to do 

You cried each night until you were eleven 

You prayed that God would bring your daddy back to you 

It got much worse when you were in high school 

From guy to guy, you wondered why you never felt a thing 

You wondered if you'd ever find a lover who'd someday 

Get down on his knees, holding that diamond ring 

This summer's taking me to California 

But I won't go until you know that what I say is true 

When everything you've ever loved has left you 

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

Your senior year, you and your friends went crazy 

But then you found out who your friends really were 

You were betrayed by everyone that mattered 

So you drank until it all became a blur 

But don't forget about when I first met you 

Well, I can see a pain too deep to kiss away 

You thought that I would be another let down 

So here I am, proving to you that I am here to stay 

This summer's taking me to California 

But I won't go until you know that what I say is true 

When everything you've ever loved has left you 

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

I don't wanna leave you lonely 

I just wanna be right here 

Even if you don't believe me 

I will try to make it clear 

This summer's taking me to California 

But I won't go until you know that what I say is true 

When everything you've ever loved has left you 

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

This summer's taking me to California 

But I won't go until you know that what I say is true 

When everything you've ever loved has left you 

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

This summer's taking me to California 

But I won't go until you know that what I say is true 

When everything you've ever loved has left you 

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