I'll need time to get you off my mind
And I may sometimes bother you, try to be in touch with you
Even ask too much of you from time to time
Now and then, Lord, you know I'll need a friend
'Til I get used to losin you let me keep on usin you,
'Til I can make it on my own
I'll get by but no matter how I try
There'll be times you know I'll call
Chances are my tears will fall
And I'll have no pride at all from time to time
But they say Oh, there'll be a brighter day
But 'til then Ill lean on you, that's all I mean to do,
'Til I can make it on my own
Surely someday I'll look up and see the morning sun
Without another lonely night behind me
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done
No more hurtin' memories can find me
But 'til then, Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend
'Til I get used to losin you, let me keep on usin you
'Til I can make it on my own
'Til I can make it on my own
