Got to be there, got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world.
Got to be there, got to be there,
Bring her good times and show her that she's my girl.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me.
Cause when I look in her eyes.
I realize I need her sharing the world beside me.
So I've got to be there, got to be there in the morning,
And welcome her into my world, and show her that she's my girl.
When she says hello world!
Got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there
When she needs someone to keep her through the night.
Got to be there, got to be there, to take her hand and lead her into my life.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me
Cause when I look in her eyes,
I realize I need her sharing the world beside me.
That's why I've got to be there,
Got to be there where love begins and that's ev'rywhere she goes,
I've got to be there so she knows that when she's with me she's home.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world.
Got to be there, got to be there,
Bring him good times and show him that I'm his girl.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me.
'Cause when I look in his eyes.
I realize I need him sharing the world beside me.
So I've got to be there, got to be there in the morning,
And welcome him into my world, and show him that I'm his girl.
When she says hello world!
Got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there
When she needs someone to keep him through the night.
Got to be there, got to be there, to take her hand and lead her into my life.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me
Cause when I look in her eyes,
I realize I need him sharing the world beside me.
That's why I've got to be there,
Got to be there where love begins and that's ev'rywhere she goes,
I've got to be there so he knows that when he's with me he's home.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
When she says hello to the world.
Got to be there, got to be there,
Bring her good times and show her that she's my girl.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me.
Cause when I look in her eyes.
I realize I need her sharing the world beside me.
So I've got to be there, got to be there in the morning,
And welcome her into my world, and show her that she's my girl.
When she says hello world!
Got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there
When she needs someone to keep her through the night.
Got to be there, got to be there, to take her hand and lead her into my life.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me
Cause when I look in her eyes,
I realize I need her sharing the world beside me.
That's why I've got to be there,
Got to be there where love begins and that's ev'rywhere she goes,
I've got to be there so she knows that when she's with me she's home.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world.
Got to be there, got to be there,
Bring him good times and show him that I'm his girl.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me.
'Cause when I look in his eyes.
I realize I need him sharing the world beside me.
So I've got to be there, got to be there in the morning,
And welcome him into my world, and show him that I'm his girl.
When she says hello world!
Got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there
When she needs someone to keep him through the night.
Got to be there, got to be there, to take her hand and lead her into my life.
Oh, what a feeling there'll be the moment I know she loves me

Got to be there where love begins and that's ev'rywhere she goes,
I've got to be there so he knows that when he's with me he's home.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.
Got to be there, got to be there, got to be there.

Since his death it makes me think about how Michael Jackson is always gonna live on in his music, his charity work, etc. He'll always "be there" for all of us. Calling his name by throwing on an old record, or flipping to him on our Ipods. It sounds like it's what he wants all his fans and those who support him to follow and that he has faith in everyone to be good people and loving. If we falter, his loving message will always be in his music and in his life to put us all back on the right track. I don't know. It's just the current times and how interesting it seems to be... it just fits so well.
"Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter..." You already have MJ, RIP!
