| [00:08.10] |
I was there that night in Bethlehem |
| [00:14.72] |
And when Neil and the boys came to the moon in that tin can |
| [00:22.32] |
At Gettysburg, Omaha beach, in Vietnam |
| [00:28.98] |
I heard every soldiers cry and every mommas prayer |
| [00:35.99] |
I was there |
| [00:40.45] |
I was there when you took your first breath |
| [00:47.64] |
When you lit that stolen Lucky Strike and like to choke to death |
| [00:54.43] |
When you were waist deep in Carter’s Creek |
| [00:58.53] |
And preacher John dunked you down in the water and raised you up for air |
| [01:08.50] |
I was there |
| [01:13.90] |
I’m always around |
| [01:16.57] |
I was then and I am now |
| [01:20.10] |
And I’ll be here when tomorrow comes |
| [01:27.10] |
When a road comes to an end |
| [01:30.53] |
I’m where you start again |
| [01:34.23] |
I’m never farther than a word away |
| [01:39.92] |
You’ve always got a friend |
| [01:44.95] |
When your grandma passed, I was in that house |
| [01:51.77] |
When you Grandpa ran down the streets of gold to show her around |
| [01:59.22] |
I was there |
| [02:18.21] |
I’m always around |
| [02:21.40] |
I was then and I am now |
| [02:25.50] |
And I’ll be here when tomorrow comes |
| [02:31.97] |
When a road comes to an end |
| [02:35.48] |
I’m where you start again |
| [02:39.19] |
I’m never farther than a word away |
| [02:44.76] |
You’ve always got a friend |
| [02:50.50] |
I was there last night on highway 9 |
| [02:56.95] |
When you answered the phone and ran right through that stop sign |
| [03:04.44] |
I was in the cab of that big rig, in that trucker’s ear |
| [03:11.47] |
They made him swerve to the right and miss you by a hair |
| [03:18.28] |
I was there |
| [03:22.44] |
If you’re feeling alone look up on the One who answers prayers |
| [03:31.60] |
And I’m always there |
