You and I must make a pact
We must bring salvation back
Where there is love
I'll be there, I'll be there

I'll reach out my hand to you
I'll have faith in all you do
Just call my name
And I'll be there, I'll be there

And, oh
I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you
I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength; I'll keep holdin' on

Holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on
Yes I will, yes I will

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, girl it's all I'm after
Whenever you need me
I'll be there, I'll be there

I'll be there to protect you
Jermaine: Yeah baby
With a non-selfish love that respects you
Just call my name
And I'll be there, I'll be there

And oh
I'll be there to comfort you
Build my world of dreams around you
I'm so glad that I found you
I'll be there with a love that's strong
I'll be your strength; I'll keep holdin' on

Holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin' on, holdin on'

If you should ever find someone new
I know he'd better be good to you
'Cause if he doesn't
I'll be there, I'll be there

Don't you know baby yeah yeah
I'll be there
I'll be there
Just call my name, I'll be there

Just look over your shoulders honey, ooohhh
I'll be there
I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be there, don't you know baby yeah, yeah
I'll be there
