"You Can Count On Me" lyrics

"You Can Count On Me"

It’s a sad day ‘cause all my old friends have changed
I just want you to know that I’m still the same

You can count on me
You can count on me
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
You can count on me

It’s a broken clock, they’ve got no time for you
All you need is a friend to tell secrets to
I’m here for you

You can count on me
You can count on me
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
You can count on me

I’ve seen great people slip away right before my eyes
They’re not here today
You should know that I won’t disappear on you

No more barricades or walls of emotional stone
No more dead-end streets that you walk down alone

You can count on me
You can count on me
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
You can count on me
When you’re lost and you need new eyes to see
You can count on me
I’ll help you follow through on all of your dreams
You can count on me
