JUST A HUG FROM FALLEN

Okay, I know some of you will think this is sappy (and it probably is) but I just thought about this old song while I was posting to a new friend/fellow sufferer this morning and thought SOMEONE might like to hear/see these words this day or whenever.  And, of course, you ladies need to insert/replace BROTHER in the song for SISTER.  :)   AND If this is too shallow for such a serious place, my apologies in advance.  I am a sentimental, sappy, Southerner and proud of it.  I LOVE YOU



Artist: Bill Withers
Album: Unknown
Title: Lean On Me

Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's
Always tomorrow

Lean on me
When you're not strong
I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please, swallow your pride
If I have things
You need to borrow
For no one can fill
Those of your needs
That you won't let show

You just call on me brother
When you need a hand
We all need somebody
To lean on
I just might have a problem
That you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me
When you're not strong
I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For, it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

You just call on me brother
When you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem
That you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load
You have to bare
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
Call Me
If you need a friend
(Call Me)
Call Me
If you need a friend
(Call Me)
If you ever need a friend
(Call Me)
Call Me
If you need a friend
