Stormy nights, I`ve been waiting 
Satisfy you, oh yeah 
But his love is just a game 
And he`s sellng you the same old lies 

And I`m hangin` on the wire 
And no closer to the fire 
And you don`t hear me when I cry 

(CHORUS) 
You may need someone to lean upon 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
And what is left is a love so strong 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
You wouldn`t believe to what extent 
My mind is going to 
You wouldn`t deny me in your dreams 
You couldn`t belong to someone else 
If you could see me now 
And I`d be the only one 
When he`s gone 

My understanding that you remember 
For whom the bell tolls, oh yeah 
I swear to you I pray 
That you feel the battle rage 
For the saving of my soul 

And it`s a struggle to survive 
You know it`s keepin` us alive 
And baby I don`t wanna die 

(CHORUS) 
I will be someone you lean upon 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
And what is left is a love so strong 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
You wouldn`t believe to what extent 
My mind is going to 
You wouldn`t deny me in your dreams 
You couldn`t belong to someone else 
If you could see me now 
And I`d be the only one 
When he`s gone 

I will be someone you lean upon 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
And what is left is a love so strong 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 
I will be someone you lean upon 
When he`s gone, when he`s gone 

Don`t tell me it`s too late 
And your love don`t make me wait 
I can see the end of time 
With a love that makes you mine 
And tonight I let you know 
There`s a love that won`t let go
