I'll Be There

We were sixteen when you told me about a party Friday night

You said if I could, maybe I would, kind of like to stop on by

I just shrugged my shoulders and said okay, but I was thinking as I walked away

I'll be there

Don't you know I wouldn't miss it for the world

Girl, I swear, if it means that much to you, there's nothing I won't do to make it a moment

we can share

I'll be there

Now we're all grown, we're the child of our own, and this week's her first school play

I'd love to go, but with all the old, I hate to lose that day of pain

So I told her when she said, Daddy, please, that a man has got to have priorities

I'll be there

Don't you know I wouldn't miss it for the world

Girl, I swear, if it means that much to you, there's nothing I won't do to make it a moment

we can share

I'll be there

And should the good Lord decide to call me on high, I'll be watching from above

So whenever you need me, even though you don't see me, you'll still feel my love

I'll be there

Don't you know I wouldn't miss it for the world

Anywhere

If it means that much to you, there's nothing I won't do to make it a moment we can share

I'll be there

I'll be there

I'll be there
