When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you

Sometimes when all your dreams may have seen better days
And you don't know how or why, but you've lost your way
Have no fear when your tears are fallin'
I will hear your spirit callin'
And I swear I'll be there come what may

When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
I will come to you

'Cause even if we can't be together
We'll be friends now and forever
And I swear that I'll be there come what may
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you

We all need somebody we can turn to
Someone who'll always understand
So if you feel that your soul is dyin'
And you need the strength to keep tryin'
I'll reach out and take your hand
I'll reach out and take your hand

Oh, I will come to you
When you have no light to guide you
And no one to walk to walk beside you
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
When the night is dark and stormy
You won't have to reach out for me
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you
I will come to you
Oh, I will come to you

    General Comment:Not hearing this song for over 10 years and then finally listening to it, I've got to say its still pretty amazing. They were very talented as kids and still are.

    General Comment:Lol, I'm surprised no one's caught Marry of the blood's little slip in 5 years. It was With You In Your Dreams they wrote for their grandmother. It is sweet of them though.

    This song holds a special place in my own heart because when I really took the moment to sit down and listen to it, I was considering suicide at the time. The lyric that says "I'll reach out and take your hand" made me realize not only my faith in God, but the meaning that their music will always be a shoulder to lean on when I need it. Since then, I made a pact with myself that if I ever felt that way again, I would tough it out to shake their hands. I've now shaken hands with them five times.

    Viva la Hanson!

    General Comment:Monkfluence, I agree with you about God reaching out to us when no one else will. I was reading random verses the other day, and I came across John 14:18, where Jesus says, "I will come to you". I was like "Wow, maybe that's what the song is really about!" :) This song is so beautiful too. Hanson rocks! :)

    General Comment:I totally agree with veronda, this song is so beautiful it could be used in a wedding. Its always been a firm fave of mine. I think a re-record would be good, but I also think part of the charm of the song is that they are so young and sweet...

    General Comment:When i was a teenager, about 9 years ago I went through depression. I really felt like this song was God speaking to me. When I couldn't reach out myself, he did. It meant a lot to me. It is a beautiful song. Their best I think. I haven't heard anything from Hanson for yonks though. Simply ages. Perhaps they are only in America now.

    General Comment:this song is amazing.
    i cant believe they were so young when they sang this.
    i bought this cd when i was 9 years old. And i didnt even know that this song existed back then.
    Now I'm 17 and i found the cd and listened to the whole thing again and i have to say that this song is the BEST on the album. It really does bring tears to my eyes. But at the same time, it is so soothing. It is unbelievable to think that they could do something at such a young age. Hanson are amazing.
    p.s Penny and Me also rocks my socks.

    General Comment:This song is clearly about the promise to protect someone he loves and showing her he's going to be there. This is an amazing song.

    General Comment:This song can still drive me to tears, like it did back when I was 12. It was sweet of them to write a song in memory of their grandmother. I adore this song, and it helps me feel better when I have a family scare.
