As I watch the news coverage of Katrina, and am overcome by both tears of sadness at the loss and devastation and tears of joy at the kindness of strangers and the resilience of the human spirit, this song keeps popping into my head. Hang tough, hang strong and hang together. We are never alone.
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrowLean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean onPlease swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let showLean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean onIf there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call meSo just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean onLean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
