When your friends desert you,
I'll stand beside you all the way
You came at my heart
Whenever you need me, I'll be there

You can always count on me
'Cause I'm beside you
You can always count on me
'Cause I'm beside you

When your hope is fading
I'll be your lighthouse in the storm
I'll stand by your side
And show you the way to smile again

You can always count on me
'Cause I'm beside you
You can always count on me
I'm beside you

(Guitar solo)

(Saxophone solo)

You can always count on me
'Cause I'm beside you
You can always count on me
I'm beside you

If it takes forever,
I'll find a way to keep you near
Just to be your friend
Whenever you need me, I'll be there

You can always count on me
'Cause I'm beside you
You can always count on me
Oh, I'm beside you
You can always count on me
I'm... beside you
You can always count on me
