I Need You Now
Geri Darrow 1985 (norwich, ct)
My friend, I need you now
Please take me by the hand.
Stand by me in my time of need,
Take the time to understand.
Take my hand, dear friend,
And lead me from this place.
Chase away my doubts and fears,
Wipe the tears off my face.
Friend, I cannot stand here alone.
I need your hand to hold,
The warmth of your gentle touch
In my world that's grown so cold.
Please be a friend to me
And hold me day to day.
Because with your loving hand in mine,
I know we'll find the way
