Its easy to laugh in the summer time,
its easy to smile when everything goes right in your
life, all of these things make you feel alive,
i see the joy when i look into your eyes,
but when the clouds come around will you ever truly
be there, and will you still have a smile even nobody else cares.

CHORUS
will you be there when the darkness covers the sky,
and will you be there when the earth stands still and
theres nothing left but pride,
when the lightning strikes and the thunder roars and
the sun dont shine in here no more,
will you be there? when the lights go down.

Its easy to hide behind camouflage,
its easy to put on a glim and make life worth your
while, but when the clouds come around will you ever
truly be there, and will you still have a smile even nobody else cares.

CHORUS
will you be there when the darkness covers the sky,
and will you be there when the earth stands still and
theres nothing left but pride,
when the lightning strikes and the thunder roars and
the sun dont shine in here no more,
will you be there? when the lights go down.
