I was there
I am here
But where are you
When my times grow near

I been there by your side
Every step, every glide
Every moment of my life
Until one shall die

Remember the cold winters
The hurtful splinters
Mean, cruel bitters
The falling down on litter

I was there
I am here
But where are you,
When my time grows near

Problems I had
Which made me very mad
Where were you
When I needed an extra pad

Please my friend
Come out, come out
Where are you
When I need help

I was there
I am here
But where are you
When my times grow near
