Listen to Mr. Wither's wise words

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Wpof8s5ZTg[/youtube]

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean 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 on

Please 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 show

Lean 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 on

If 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 me

So 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 on

Lean 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

Lean on me...

Thank you! I'll listen to that a couple hundred times.

Here's one of my favorites. The singer is doing it as a cover, but it's my favorite version of the song. The movie it's at the end of is where I first heard the song.

Lean On Me is a beautiful song but if I'm feeling down it just makes me more sad because I don't have anyone to lean on. :(

A bit of a strange vid - but AMAZING song. I love Modest Mouse.
It always makes me feel better if I'm down. (:

Don't you worry, We'll all float on. (:

Bill is good for cheering you up.

Never realised he was quite so funky or socially aware as this! Love this song.

Personally I'd rather listen to They Might Be Giants - generally guaranteed to make me smile! :)
