I'm looking at you, old friend of mine
There's no use pretending that every thing's fine
Now don't be so brave, don't be so proud
I want you to know that I'm here for you now
I can see you hurting and it's hurting me
It doesn't have to be this way
If you let me hold you closer
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
Let me know you
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna see you right)
Let me show you the way
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
I'm feeling for you, feeling so much
When this heart is big enough for the both of us
I'll give you my love if you give me your pain
Hold it inside of me 'till you're stronger again
Well, I hate seeing you so far away
When not a word can say it enough
If you let me hold you closer
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
Let me know you
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna see you right)
Let me show you the way
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
(Let me show you the way)
I'll be your rock for this day
When I hear you calling out my name
'Cause I know you'd only do the same for me
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you right)
Let me show you the way
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
If you let me hold you closer
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
Let me know you
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna see you right)
Let me show you, show you the way
(Somebody gonna, somebody gonna)
(Somebody gonna hold your head up)
(Somebody gonna show you the light)
