Girl, you’ve been coming ‘round for a long, long time,
We’ve had our ups and downs, and we turn on a dime.
Everyone we know says we don’t have a prayer,
But when one gets low, the other’s always there.
I’m standing on the shore while you drift out to sea,
You never knew before what you have here in me.
I know you hear my voice, but you still have some doubt,
It’s time to make your choice, ‘cause the tide is rolling out.
Be with me, be my girl
Tell your friends, tell the world,
When you hold me to the light,
Do I look good? Do I feel right?
Be with me, don’t let go,
Everybody ought to know,
If you’re happy by my side,
Don’t hold back, let it ride, be with me.
I’m not the only one whose dreams you make come true,
But after all is said and done, no one loves you like I do.
When everything gets rough, I’m the place where you go,
Isn’t that enough to make you tell the others no?
Be with me, be my girl
Tell your friends, tell the world,
When you hold me to the light,
Do I look good? Do I feel right?
Be with me, don’t let go,
Everybody ought to know,
If you’re happy by my side,
Don’t hold back, let it ride, be with me.
You’ve heard out your heart, now listen to your soul,
Would you rather be apart? Why shouldn’t we be whole?
Only you can say if you’re up to the task,
Now I’ve had my say, and it’s the last time that I’ll ask.
Be with me, be my girl
Tell your friends, tell the world,
When you hold me to the light,
Do I look good? Do I feel right?
Be with me, don’t let go,
Everybody ought to know,
If you’re happy by my side,
Don’t hold back, let it ride, be with me.
