Beth Orton - Lean On Me Lyrics






You've seen sad times
Your eyes have told me so
Blue and bad times
You think that I don't know
But there'll be glad times
Just you wait and see
And there'll be a sun rise
If you lean on me
Said lean on me babe
You can lean on me
I imagine I could comfort you
I have forgotten
The things that you've been through
But there's one thing
On which we can a agree
When you're ready darling
You can lean on me
And the love I bring
Will grow into a lasting thing
Put your heart on wings
And set you free
And as you rise
Up into the clearing skies
Maybe you will realise
You can lean on me
And lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
All your heartache
Hidden deep inside
So there's no telling
How many tears you've cried
But like the river
To the weeping willow tree
I can hold your teardrops child
So lean on me
And the love I bring
Will grow into a lasting thing
Put your heart on wings
And set you free
And as you rise
Up into the clearing skies
Maybe you will realise
You can lean on me
And lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
And lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
And lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me
And lean on me
You can lean on me
Lean on me
You can lean on me

    Some of the best and most lyrics ever!

  8. e.... r....

    this has been a house song for twenty years I send this to friends THANK YOU!!!!!

  9. l.... ....

    Was listening to the original earlier today from Callier's 1972 album "Occasional Rain". The added harmony is makes this a nice version too.

  10. S.... H....

    Beautiful. Two fantastic artists. First time of hearing this. I love it.

  11. A.... B....

    many happy times listening to this. such a wonderful piece of music. x

  12. a.... ....

    Heard Beth and Terry perform this live, fabulously, in Bruxelles (Nuits Botaniques) in 2002 and it's stayed with me ever since. Even more beautiful than Terry's solo version and/or their duet cover of Fred Neil's Dolphins, and that's saying something!

  13. S.... M....

    I just heard her cover of OOOH Child on "Defiance"...I had to look it up...what a voice...I love her...

  14. l.... ....

    This song is for my love

  15. i.... ....

    how the hell did I miss this! he was my hero for years! so sad! I met him once. He didn't disappoint. Few celebrity deaths upset me, but I loved Terry. most wonderful voice

    Another great duet!

  25. M.... B....

    This song blows me away. Also the song Beth does with Terri on her Central Reservation CD-Pass in time. I did not know who he was on that song until I heard this song and then looked it up. I just discovered this song a month ago when played on a small radio station in Girdwood Alaska. Thank god that I now know who Terri Callier is.

  26. A.... G....

    @dizubz - yes, it's a beauty!!!

  27. T.... ....

    great song :)) ktf

  28. T.... ....

    always been a legend jazz/soul man - brilliant post :)) ktf

  29. J.... ....

    I first heard Terry Callier sing this song at a club called The Bulls in Chicago... nearly 40 years ago. He had just written it...and when he started playing the noisy place got quiet and everyone listened!!!

  31. C.... C....

    This is a beautiful version of this song. Nothing can touch the original but this version is really nice.

  32. P.... ....

    I like the original version better with him singing along. It´s really mesmerizing.

    P.... ....
