Michel Griffin's Original Lyrics

Gonna be There

Here we are again,

So much more than friends;

Me with my unspoken prayer,

You with the Amen.

I loved you from the start

Your softly beating heart

Filled my every waking hour

I knew we'd never part;

I know that you've been lonely;

Know that I have too:

If I make people laugh so much

It's because I'm often blue;

But then you came and found me

Your arms so open wide

The proof that there's no distance

True love cannot fly.

And I know you're gonna be there

When the daylight dims

And the night is full of shadows

Where the moonlight swims

And I know you're gonna be there

Your eyes brim full of love

I'll hold you like a magnet

You'll fit me like a glove

And you know I'm gonna be there

When the cold winds blow

And the storms crash round the rooftops

And the night is swirling snow;

And we know I'm gonna be there

To hold you in my arms

To gentle you with stillness

And try to keep you warm.

And now I've made you cry

I knew that you would cry

I love the way that tenderness

Brings teardrops to your eye;

So here we are again,

So much more than friends;

You with your unspoken prayer,

And me with the Amen.
