I wish I was there
Holding your hand
In the deep of the night
When you need a friend

Cause I know these last winters
Have been hard on your soul
It began from your cheeks
Then your smile slowly froze

And I know that you feel
You can't do this no more
When your life skips a beat
It's the heart that keeps score

There are long gloomy days
And some cold-hearted nights
But soon you'll wake up
And you're gonna be fine

Stumbling by chance
By our old secret spot
Where we used to play Dylan
Every day/night until dark

Now I know you were right
When you said with a smile
“This summer will be
The best of our life”

And I know that you feel
This ain't true anymore
Your life has mistreated you
And your soul has kept score

These are long gloomy days
And some cold-hearted nights
But with a help from a friend
You will take back your life

Remember that summer
I got drunk, almost drowning
You jumped in the water
Caught me breathless and laughing

And I'll never forget
That helping hand
So here I am now
When you need a friend
