Lyrics

I WANT TO BE THERE

When you're drowning in despair,
Think no one’s left who cares,
You’re down to your last prayer --
I want to be there.

When that next flight of stairs
Is more than you can bear,
Another Hitchcock nightmare --
I want to be there.

With your Mother Hubbard stare
At your cupboard so bare,
Not a crumb left to share --
I want to be there.

I can bring you comfort,
Relief from all your pain,
Take away your hurt,
Take away the rain.

I can bring you comfort,
Shelter you from the rain,
Kiss you where it hurts,
Relieve you of your pain.

No eleventh hour appeal,
You’re down to your last meal.
No eleventh hour appeal;
It’s the end of your ordeal.

I can bring you comfort,
Shelter you from the rain,
Kiss you where and when it hurts,
Relieve you of your pain.

I can bring you comfort,
Shelter you from the rain,
Kiss you when and where it hurts,
Relieve you of your pain.

I want to be there.
I want to be there.
