[Verse 1] I've come to understand The beauty of my heart It's lost and found in you It's gradual yeah, go stronger through the years There's never a time you've ever let me down And through thick and thin, you've always had my back This world is not big enough for you to need me And I can't be there, smiling back, holding your hand [Chorus] You're my friend, you can count on me You're my shoulder, you can count on me Feel it when it's over, you can count on me Bring it back together, you can count on me You know you can count on me All day, you can count on me Right here, you can count on me Tell you right now, you can count on me Just call my name, tell you now to call me [Verse 2] When times get dark and rough I know you had enough And lately it seems that I ain't be there And lately you think that I don't care, but There's never a time when I don't think about you Just give me a call, never forget about you If you ever fall babe, you know I'll be right there Won't you smile, hold my hand? You're my friend [Chorus] You're my friend, you can count on me You're my shoulder, you can count on me Feel it when it's over, you can count on me Bring it back together, you can count on me You know you can count on me All day, you can count on me Right here, you can count on me Tell you right now, you can count on me Just call my name, tell you now to call me [Bridge] When you're down and out, we gon' work this out Don't be a friend, hear what I say When you're down and out, we gon' work this out Don't be a friend, hear what I say When you're weak, I'll be strong Got your back, I'll never let you fall We gon' work it out You're my friend 'til the end, count on me [Chorus] You're my friend, you can count on me You're my shoulder, you can count on me Feel it when it's over, you can count on me Bring it back together, you can count on me You know you can count on me All day, you can count on me Right here, you can count on me Tell you right now, you can count on me Just call my name, tell you now to call me
