[Verse 1]
Hold me like the River Jordan
And I will then say to thee
"You are my friend"
Carry me like you are my brother
Love me like a mother
Will you be there?
[Verse 2]
Weary, tell me, will you hold me?
When wrong, will you scold me?
When lost, will you find me?
But they told me a man should be faithful
And walk when not able
And fight 'til the end, but I'm only human
[Interlude]
Ayy
Oh, yeah
Ayy
Oh, na, ayy
Oh, yeah
Mm
[Bridge]
Everyone's taking control of me
Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused, will you show it to me?
You'll be there for me
And care enough to bear me
[Chorus]
Hold me (Hold me), lay your head lowly (Lowly)
Softly then boldly (Yeah)
Carry me there (I'm only human), hold me (Hold me, yeah)
Love me and feed me (Yeah), kiss me and free me
I will feel blessed (I'm only human), carry (Carry, yeah)
Carry me boldly (Hold me, yeah), lift me up slowly (Yeah)
Carry me there (I'm only human), save me (Hoo)
Heal me and bathe me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Softly you say to me (Hey), "I will be there" (I'm only human)
Lift me (Lift me, yeah), lift me up slowly (Slowly)
Carry me boldly (Yeah)
Show me you care (I'm only human), hold me (Hoo)
Lay your head lowly (I gets lonely sometimes)
Softly then boldly (I get lonely, yeah, yeah)
Carry me there
You know I'll be there
