Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
I was walking through a crowd of strangers feeling small
Nobody looked twice, nobody looked at all
Then I heard a voice that felt like sunshine on my skin
Telling me the lonely days could finally begin to end
[verse]
I don't need a fortune, I don't need a crown
Just somebody steady when the walls come down
I've been building castles out of promises and air
Now I need a reason to believe you'll still be there
[chorus]
Say you'll be there, when the night gets long
Say you'll be there, when I lose my song
I'll be waiting by the water, I'll be waiting in the square
Just say you'll be there, say you'll be there
[verse]
Every heart needs someone who won't run when things get hard
Every dream needs someone standing guard
I've been down that lonely road and back again
Now I'm asking you to be my closest friend
[chorus]
Say you'll be there, when the night gets long
Say you'll be there, when I lose my song
I'll be waiting by the water, I'll be waiting in the square
Just say you'll be there, say you'll be there
[bridge]
No more games, no more maybes, no more waiting on the phone
Just a simple promise, just a place to call our own
Give me something real, give me something true
Say you'll be there and I'll say it too
[chorus]
Say you'll be there, when the night gets long
Say you'll be there, when I lose my song
I'll be waiting by the water, I'll be waiting in the square
Just say you'll be there, say you'll be there
