I'll Be Around

Michael W. Smith

from the album I'll Lead You Home

Play sample

Hey, boy - did you find out
What 'ya had to know - 'n what it's all about
When you started to move - just a step at a time
You never wanted to fall
(You) took a chance on the wild side

Hey, girl - can't 'ya come down
Are 'ya way at the top - afraid of somethin' you found
Then you try to go back - not as easy to do
Did you find who you are?
From a dance on the wild side

I know sometimes it's hard for you
To keep your feet upon the path that you've chosen
It's not for you to walk alone
Together we can take this road where it's going - hang on

(CHORUS)
Stand by me - Stand right here
The time has come to say it clear
Don't give up - Don't give in
We will stand together to the end
And, I'll be around - I'll be around, yeah

No joke - the sooner you find
(It) happens all the same - (for) every mother's child
When you walk in the dark - then you stumble and fall
It's a part of it all
When we dance on the wild side

But everybody needs someone
Who loves 'em through the toughest times - while they're growing
Who keeps a candle burning
When the darkness covers up the path - where they're going - hang on

(CHORUS 2)
Stand by me - Stand right here
The time has come to say it clear
Now don't give up - Don't give in
We will stand together to the end
And, I'll be around - come what may
Heaven hears us when we pray
(So) don't give up - Don't give in
We will stand together to the end
I will be there, my good friend
And I'll be around, be around, I'll be around...

(BRIDGE)
I'll walk this road with you
Wherever it may wind
And I'll be around

(CHORUS 2)
