Be There Songtext
von Twiddle

Cruising my way uptown
On the west side
Watching all the chitter chatter pass me by
I see the energy pass in the streets
Yeah I know that it′s free, yeah I want that relief
I see a cardboard sign and some very old hands and some very cold hands
Watching everybody pass him by, why so cool all the time, where's the love in this life?

Yeah I know things aren′t getting better
I'm just waiting for change in the weather
And when your lights start shining down
You know I'll be there when it goes
And when the ground starts burning out
Well I′ll pick you right up out the cold
Because in daylight when the sun starts burning out of grey skies
You know my love will fill in that hole
And when you hear my final cry
Well I′ll always be there in your soul

I'll always be there in your soul...


Driving by an old man sitting on a bench
Wondering where his kids went wondering why they left
Mama died years ago, papa was a mess
So they stuck him in a home, all alone all depressed
Every night he′d check the phones, "no messages" they'd say
No visitors, no phone calls, everybody′s gone away

Sitting on this bench with his memories on rewind
Why so cool all the time, where's the love in this life?

Yeah I know things aren′t getting better
Well I'm just waiting for change in the weather
And when your lights stop shining down
You'll know I′ll be there when it goes
And when the ground starts burning out
Well I′ll pick you right up out the cold
Because in daylight when the sun starts burning out of grey skies
You know my love will fill in that hole

And when you hear my final cry
Well I'll always be there in your soul
I′ll always be there in your soul...

Driving by my high school back to the start
Watching little billy getting bullied in the yard
By two older boys with ignorance in their heart
Never kissed a girl, no phone, no car


Billy didn't have a say and mama couldn′t pay the rent
Yeah, he prayed to God for another day
He cried himself to sleep almost every single night
Why so cool all the time, where's the love in this life?

Yeah I know things aren′t getting better
Well I'm just waiting for change in the weather
And when your lights stop shining down
You'll know I′ll be there when it goes
And when the ground starts burning out
Well I′ll pick you right up out the cold

Because in daylight
Yeah
You know my love will fill in that hole
And when you hear my final cry
Well I'll always be there in your soul
I′ll always be there...

Cruising my way uptown
On the west side
Watching all the chitter chatter pass me by
I see the energy pass in the streets
Yeah I know that it's free, yeah I want that relief
