Lawrence El, Stokley)



Intro:



Yeah

Talkin about a real friend

Set your mind at ease baby

Ain't nothin wrong with that



Verse:



I guess we both have seen some brighter days

Somehow the love we've shared has slipped away

Still I wanna be the one who keeps ya safe and harm

Let me be the one



Although things with me and you didn't quite work out

For you there's a special place deep in my heart

Though I wanna extend my unconditional love

Let me be the one



Chorus



If you need a friend

Let me be the one

Someone that you call

Wanna be the one through it all

You don't have to fall

Just let me be the one

Let me be the one



Verse:



Promises made they've all worn paper thin

Still honey I'm not afraid to call you friend

Take a look and I know you'll see

The possibilities

Let me be the one



To see you smile

There's nothing I won't do

Cause honey I only want what's best for you

You are a shining star

Just stay the way you are

Let me be the one



Chorus



Jazz solo



Chorus



Adlib:



Let me be

Let me be

Let me be

Oh-oh let me be



Bridge (2x):



Wanna be the one you need

Let me set you mind at ease

Nothin wrong with being a friend

Wanna be til the end



Adlib til the end of song
