When the night seems to dark
And the distance too far
It's good to know
I can count on you

Sometimes it seems
That it's all too much to handle
Sometimes it feels
Like it's just too hard alone
It's a great big world out there
And it isn't always fair
It can leave you lost and scared
If you're on your own
Away from home

When the night seems too dark
And the distance too far
It's good to know
I can count on you
When I'm caught in between
Not sure of my dreams
It's good to know
I can count on you

I can count on you
To be a friend when I'm in need
I can count on you
To stay beside me all the way
I didn't know if you'd even want to answer
I didn't know if you'd turn and walk away
You understood that I needed you right by my side
And you didn't ask me why you just came
And never complained

When the night seems too dark
And the distance too far
It's good to know
I can count on you
When I'm caught in between
Not sure of my dreams
It's good to know
I can count on you

When we put our differences aside
There's nothing we can't do
When we see e ye to eye

When the night seems too dark
And the distance too far
It's good to know
I can count on you
When I'm caught in between
Not sure of my dreams
It's good to know
That you'll get me through hard times
When nothing seems right
With you by my side
It's good to know
I can count on you
I can count on you to stay
I can count on you
