I Just Wanna Be There Lyrics - Dusty Springfield

(Nickolas Ashford / Valerie Simpson) 

Now when the storm of life is rushing in on you 

And all hope is gone 

And you feel the pain and misery of 

Being left all alone 

After you've tried so hard and your life 

Is standing still 

And you think you just don't have the 

Strength to climb another hill 

Oh, I just wanna be there 

I just wanna be there 

Just to hold you close 

Said I wanna be there 

I just wanna be there 

'Cause I love you most

When you need a little understanding from 

Your so-called friends 

And you find the road you're travelling down is 

Coming do a dead-end 

When suddenly you find yourself lost and 

Stumbling through the night 

Now let me be the hand in the dark that's leading 

You to the light 

Oh, I just wanna be there 

I just wanna be there 

Just to hold you close 

Said I wanna be there 

I just wanna be there 

'Cause I love you most 

Ooh, ooh, I wanna be there 

Baby, baby, baby, baby, I wanna be there, yeah 

Wanna be there 

Said I wanna be there 

I just wanna be there 

'Cause I love you most 

Promise not to ever try to change you 

I love you for yourself 

No matter what you choose to be your fate 

Now let me be your helpmate 

Let me be the main source of power that 

Makes your wheels turn 

And let me be the wood in the furnace to make 

Your fire burn 

Yeah, I just wanna be there 

Just to hold you close 

Said I wanna be there 

'Cause I love you most 

Ooh, hey, I wanna be there 

Said I wanna be there 

'Cause I love you most 

Said I wanna be, wanna be, wanna be there, yeah 

'Cause I love you most
