Some live life with eyes that don`t see
They look away at the time of your greatest need
Some talk, some`ll just do, some just turn their back
Turn around and just walk away
I know i`ve done that
Lonely days and lonely nights
Easy to be cynical
Never put yourself on the line
I`d like to reach out
Well, why don`t I?
Take the load up off your back
I`d like to try
Let me carry the water
Let me carry the weight
I will bear your burden
Let me carry the load
Working hard, sweating all day
In the long hot sun
Feel alone with a heavy heart
You`re not the only one
Bossman says time to jump
We say how high
If you need a hand getting off your feet
Baby, i`ll try
I want to cover tou
Like the sea on the sand
Easy to be cynical
Never take a stand
Easy for me not to give a damn
I`ll ask you to call for me
And i`ll give you a hand
Let me carry the water
Let me carry the load
I will shoulder your burden
Let me carry the load
Lonely nights and lonely days
You wait for someone to come along
And sweep you away
I`ll put myself out there
It just might feel good
I don`t always do that
But I think I should
