Anytime Lyrics

Anytime you feel like you just can’t hold on
Just hold on to my love and I’ll help you be strong
But you’re so afraid to lose, and baby I can’t reach your heart
I can’t face this world that’s keeping us apart
When I can be the one to show you
Everything you missed before
Just hold on now, cause I can be the one to give you more
Let you know

[Chorus]
Anytime you need love baby I’m on your side (hey)
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright

I look into your eyes, and I feel it coming through
And I can’t help but want you more than I want to
So baby take all of your fears, and cast them all on me
'Cause all I ever wanted is just to make you see
That I could be the one to give you
All that you’ve been searching for
Just hold on to my love, and baby let me give you more
You know, anytime

Anytime you need love baby I’m on your side (on the side)
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright

And now there’s no way out
And I can’t help the way I feel
'Cause baby you’re the fire and I’ll be waiting right here
You know my love is real, baby
Yeah yeah yeah

Anytime you need love baby I’m on your side, you know
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it al, make it al, make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart
I can make it alright, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Anytime you need love baby I'm on your side (I'm on your side)
Just let me be the one (let me be the one let me be the one let me be the one alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart (you're in my heart)
I can make it alright

Anytime you feel like you just can’t hold on 
Just hold on to my love and I’ll help you be strong 
But you’re so afraid to lose, and baby I can’t reach your heart 
I can’t face this world that’s keeping us apart 
When I can be the one to show you 
Everything you missed before 
Just hold on now, cause I can be the one to give you more 
Let you know

[Chorus]
Anytime you need love baby I’m on your side (hey)
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart 
I can make it alright

I look into your eyes, and I feel it coming through 
And I can’t help but want you more than I want to 
So baby take all of your fears, and cast them all on me 
'Cause all I ever wanted is just to make you see 
That I could be the one to give you 
All that you’ve been searching for 
Just hold on to my love, and baby let me give you more 
You know, anytime

Anytime you need love baby I’m on your side (on the side)
Just let me be the one I can make it alright (I can make it alright)
Anytime you need love baby you're in my heart 
I can make it alright

And now there’s no way out 
And I can’t help the way I feel 
'Cause baby you’re the fire and I’ll be waiting right here 
You know my love is real, baby
Yeah yeah yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I adore this song, ive gives me chills listening to it. This song also speaks to me in many ways but i think its about unrequited love, or someone being unsure about starting a new relationship. "Just let me be the one I can make it alright" shes assuring them that she wont let them down no matter one, and wants to be the one who makes them feel complete. "And I can’t help but want you more than I want to " emotions are overwhelming and she cant control the way she feels for this person. "When I can be the one to show you Everything you missed before " She tells them that she can show them new things and experiences that other people may not have had.

This song just means alot to me, and i can relate.

I love this song... It's beautiful and Im a huge Kelly-fan!! Though the lyrics are a little bit cheesy I must say that it just... SPEAKS to me. I guess because I have felt that way so many times in my life...

When I first hear this song I was like "WOAH" it's brilliant strong and powerful song. Kelly Clarkson's voice has that talent to make this song so full of emotions and I can so relate. Definitely one of my many favourite songs

I like this song, yet I dislike the overuse of the word 'baby'...a little degrading, no?
