Can I Lean on You?

It's no secret
That I've been hurt
Sometimes the pain's more
Than a heart deserves
And it's no secret
I need someone
That I can turn to
When the night time comes
Baby, can I lean on you?
'Til the heartaches are through
When it's more than I can stand
Will you hold on to my hand
When the night falls down
And the memories come around
When I've done all I can do
Can I lean on you?
I see compassion
In your eyes
I get the feeling
That you are wise.
I don't want your pity
I just need time
And a friend to help me mend
This heart of mine
So, baby can I lean on you
'Til the heartaches are through
When I've stood all I can stand
Will you hold on to my hand
When the night falls down
And there's sadness all around
Will you hide me from the blue
Can I lean on you?
I'm not asking for forever
Unless you want to stay
As long as we're together
I can face another day
When the night falls down
And there's darkness all around
And I've done all I can do
Can I lean on you?
Can I lean on you?
When my heart feels blue
Can I lean on you?
Oh, can I lean on you?
Can I lean on you?
When my heart feels blue
Can I lean on you?
