When you're thirsty and no one will fill your cup for you And your well-dressed friends don't want you on their street When you're so far down, the gutter looks like up to you I will still be kneeling at your feet I will still be kneeling at your feet When you can't remember where you left your laughter And you forget the definition of your name When your yesterday sets fire to your ever after I'll reach down and pull you from the flames I'll reach down and pull you from the flames When all the crippled children you give strength to Lay their crutches down and walk away And you realize that all their mothers hate you I'll be there to hear the things you say I'll be there to hear the things you say When at last your bitter problems all ignore you And you've come out clean, everything is done And you realize I've been through it all before you Come down and walk beside me in the sun Come down and walk beside me in the sun
