I'll Be Standing By [*]

                                  (I'll be standing by)

Whenever you need me, baby

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you want me, honey

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you call me, sugar



Whenever you need me, I'll be there

Whenever you need me, I'll be there



Let the fore winds blow

Let 'em blow, let 'em blow

As hard as they can

If dust gets in your eyes

My baby, don't you cry

'Cause I'll be standing by



(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you need me, baby

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you want me, honey

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you call me, sugar



Whenever you need me, I'll be there

Whenever you need me, I'll be there



Let the hard rain fall

Let it fall, let it fall

As hard as it needs

Don't run under a tree

Let your shelter be me

'Cause I'll be standing by



Come on now



(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you want me, honey

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you need me, baby

(I'll be standing by)

Whenever you call me, sugar



Whenever you need me, I'll be there

Whenever you need me, I'll be there



(I'll be standing by)

Come on, come on, hear me, baby

(I'll be standing by)

Oh, say you want me, honey

(I'll be standing by)

Come on, come on, call me, sugar



Whenever you need me, I'll be there

Whenever you need me, I'll be there



(I'll be standing by)

Oh, need me, need me, baby

(I'll be standing by)

Oh, say you want me, honey

(I'll be standing by)
