Oh yeah
You don't have to say what's on your mind
'Cause I know where you've been
Give it up and leave it all behind
And let me begin

[Chorus]
Come and hold my hand
Let me show how friends should be
I will make it alright
Let me make it clear
You can put your trust in me
Yes I will be there

[Chorus 2]
When you need someone
You just turn around
And I will be there
When you're feeling low
Baby let me know
And I will be there

Won't you let me make it up to you
Now you know where I am
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Just to love once again

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

Just take a stand
I'll be here for you
Now and forever
Give one more chance

To show you how much I care
I'll be there
When you need someone
Just turn around

And I will be there
When you're in sorrow
Just let me know and I will be there

[Chorus 2]

I'll be there
(I will be there)
(I will be there)
I will be there

    General Comment:I agree that this is one of her best songs ever! She is very talented and I especially loved her back when she first came out. I don't care about the times she fell down. Britney got back up and showed the world that she is truly "stronger than yesterday." LOL!
    This song is about two friends or people who care for each other, but are in a little conflict. It can any two people--lovers, friends, even family members. But, the way I see it is that there is a male and a female who are in love with each other. Love can come in many different forms, is isn't only between a boyfriend and girlfriend. But, this is the way I see it.
    MY INTERPRETATION:
    MALE:Oh oh yeah
    You don't have to say what's on your mind
    Cuz I know where you've been
    Give it up and leave it all behind
    And then let me begin

    Come on over here, let me show how things should be
    I will make it alright
    Let me make it clear, you can put your trust in me
    Yes I will be there
    Chorus
    When you need someone, you just turn around
    And I will be there
    When you're feeling alone, baby let me know
    And I will be there

    (THE MALE IS SAYING THAT HE UNDERSTANDS THAT SHE MADE A MISTAKE AND HE IS WILLING TO FORGIVE HER BECAUSE HE LOVES AND CARES FOR HER).

    FEMALE:
    Won't you let me make it up to you
    Now you know where I am
    There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
    Just to love once again


    Come on over here, let me show how things should be
    I will make it alright
    Let me make it clear, you can put your trust in me
    Yes I will be there

    Chorus
    When you need someone, you just turn around
    And I will be there
    When you're feeling alone, baby let me know
    And I will be there (THE GIRL IS ACKNOWLEDGING THAT SHE MADE A MISTAKE AND SHE NOW WANTS TO MEND THOSE MISTAKES, SHE IS WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO HAVE THEIR LOVE BE ALIVE ONCE AGAIN).

    MALE: Just take a stand ( HE IS TELLING THE GIRL TO JUST TAKE A CHANCE IN ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS BECAUSE HE WILL FORGIVE BECAUSE HE LOVES HER).
    BOTH: I'll be here for you
    Now and Forever (THEY ARE BOTH TELLING EACHOTHER THAT THEIR LOVE WILL SURVIVE THE TEST OF TIME)
    FEMALE: Give one more chance (SHE IS SAYING THAT SHE JUST NEEDS ONE MORE CHANCE TO SHOW HIM THAT SHE WILL LOVE HIM THE WAY HE DESERVES TO BE LOVED)
    BOTH: To show you how much I care
    I'll be there (THEY BOTH ARE DECLARING HOW MUCH THEY CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE BEEN THROUGH UPS IN DOWNS IN LIFE). :)

    General Comment:if she had released this song the video would have been (i think) alot like kaci's video 4 paradise. u know, with the dancers and the fairground. the lyrics r more meaningful than some of her other songs. i think it would have got 2 number 2 in the charts.
