Happy times, like pens and dimes
 
 They slip away, you turn around
 
 They're gone one day, but I'll stay
 
  
  Empty words, like winter birds
 
 They leave the nest, they join the rest
 
 Then fly away, but I'll stay
  
 
 I'll be there in the morning
 
 When you wake up, I'll be by your side
 
 I'll be there in the evening
 
 With your soul in mine
 
 I'll be there in the morning
 
 From the moment you begin to rise
 
 I'll be there in the evening
 
 Keep you satisfied satisfied
  
 
 Fairweather friends, like tempest winds
 
 They roll along, they sing their songs
 
 Then blow away, but I'll stay
  
 
 I'll be there in the morning
 
 When you wake up, I'll be by your side
 
 I'll be there in the evening
 
 With your soul in mine
 
 I'll be there in the morning
 
 From the moment you begin to rise
 
 I'll be there in the evening
 
 Keep you satisfied satisfied
  
 
 One by one, they'll all be gone
 
 But every day and in every way
 
 And for always, I'll stay
  
 
 Feelings worn like pages torn
 
 And near the end the ink begins
 
 To fade away, but I'll stay
 
 I'll stay
