Ah, yeah.

I heard the news about you a little while ago,
I tried to call, but you weren't at work; I'm glad I caught you at home,
No one else in this whole wide world could mean as much as you to me,
So if I could drop by for a little while, in case you're needing a friend.

Ah, because everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and you're no exception,
Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto, ooh,
Yeah, everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and I want to give it to you, ooh, yeah,
I want to give it to you.

You can cry if you need to; you know I'll understand,
You can tell me everything that you feel inside; don't you hold it in,
Don't you worry, don't apologise for anything you do or say,
'Cause what are friends for, but to be around when you're feeling that way'

Everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and you're no exception,
Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto,
I want to tell you, everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and I want to give it to you, ooh, ah,
I want to give it to you,
Everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and you're no exception, (yeah)
Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto,
You better listen to me: everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and I want to give it to you, ooh, ah,
Oh, can't you say it with me'
Everybody needs a little help to get their life together - you're no exception,
Everybody needs another hand that they can hold onto, ooh,
Yeah, everybody needs a little help to get their life together, and I want to give it to you, ah,
Yes I do, yes I do,
Yes I do, yes I do,
(etc, fade)
