[English]

When the lights are out we can stumble in the dark

You kept pushing on the things, you went too far

When your ship has sailed and all your dreams are lost

Everything is wrong, you feel like it's your fault

Just remember, I will be there for you, baby

Remember, there's nothing out there to get you

Don't forget it when life throws tremors

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

There, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

There, there, to get you, don't forget, there to get you

There, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

You're stronger now than you ever been

You gotta leave now, it's time to catch the wind

You will climb up high and look through the clouds

And when you're feeling low, I know you'll bounce back

And just remember, I will be there for you, baby

Remember, there's nothing out there to get you

Don't forget it when life throws tremors

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget there to get you

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

There, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

Just call on me (call me baby, I'll be there, I'll be there)

Just call on me (call me baby, and I swear I, I'll be there, I'll be there)

Just call on me (call me baby, I'll be there, I'll be there)

(Call me baby, yes, I swear that I, I'll be there, I'll be there)

And so remember, I will be there for you, baby

Remember, there's nothing out there to get you

When life door's slam us

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

Just call on me, there to get you, don't forget, there to get you

...

There, there to get you, don't forget there to get you

Just call on me

Woah-oh-oh, say the word

Just call on me

Just let me know and I will be

Just call on me

Woah-oh-oh, say the word

Just let me know and I will be

Just call on me

...
