Nellie McKay - I Will Be There Lyrics

Been working a long long time, see her in the news
Calling her on her crime but she can't refuse
'Cause she'd quit it if she could, knowing that she should
But admitted she's alright, gotta keep the fight on

And so she cries
Through weary eyes, we see

I don't have to have you but you know I want you
And you know I'll love you and so I care
But if you won't have me and if you won't see me
If you ever need me, I will be there

Been working a long long day, now it's getting dark
April is on the way, see you in the park
'Cause she'd make it if she could, knowing that she should
But she's taken up above, keep on fallin' in love, oh

And so she cries
Through wary eyes, we see

I don't have to have you but you know I want you
And you know I'll love you and so I care
But if you won't have me and if you won't see me
If you ever need me, I will be there

I don't have to have you but you know I want you
And you know I'll love you and so I care
But if you won't have me and if you won't see me
If you ever need me, I will be there
