I heard the news about you A little while ago I tried to call but you weren't at work I'm glad I caught you at home No one else in this whole wide world Could mean as much as you to me So I thought I'd drop by for a little while In case you needed a friend Everybody needs a little help to get their life together (And you're no exception) Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto Everybody needs a little help to get their life together And I want to give it to you You can cry if you need to You know I'll understand You can tell me everything that you feel inside Don't you hold it in Don't you worry, don't apologize For anything you do or say 'Cause what are friends for but to be around When you're feeling that way Everybody needs a little help to get their life together (And you're no exception) Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto Everybody needs a little help to get their life together And I want to give it to you
