These are sad times
Your eyes have told me so
Blue and black times
You think that I dont know
But therell be glad times
Just you wait and see
And Ill be your sunrise if youll lean on me
I imagine that I could comfort you
I have forgotten the things that youve been through
But heres one thing
On which we can agree
When youre ailing darlin you can lean on me
And the love I bring
Will grow into a lasting thing
Put your heart on wings
That set you free
And as you rise
Up into the clearing skies
Maybe you will realize
You can lean on me
All your heartaches
Are hidden deep inside
So theres no telling
How many tears youve cried
But like the river
Told the weeping willow tree
I can hold your tear drops
Try, lean on me
