I'LL BE THERE

The times I stood by you are few
there where things I didn't do
so many words I couldn't say
I guess I never found the way,

But now I'll make it up to you
do the things I didn't do
be there when I should come through
I wonder how you knew.

CHORUS:
The love I gave was part not whole
the love I took I guess I stole
But now I'll make it up to you
I'll be there for you.

You deserved more than you had
you searched for good and took the bad
you never let me down I know
its been a bumpy road,

And through it all you just stood by
many times I wondered why
where the strength you drew came from
you always where so strong.

CHORUS:
The love I gave was part not whole
the love I took I guess I stole
But now I'll make it up to you
I'll be there for you.

BRIDGE:
And I can see more clearly now the way you gave so much to me
how through it all you just stood by and waited for my eyes to see

CHORUS:
The love I gave was part not whole
the love I took I guess I stole
But now I'll make it up to you
I'll be there for you.
