You Can Count on Me
Count on Me: A Promise of Unwavering Support in Changing Times
Lyrics
It’s a sad day ‘cause all my old friends have changed
Expressing sadness because old friends have changed.
I just want you to know that I’m still the same
Reassuring someone that despite changes, the speaker remains the same.
You can count on me
Emphasizing reliability and support.
You can count on me
Repetition, reinforcing the idea that the speaker is dependable.
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
Offering assistance and support when someone is in trouble.
You can count on me
Reiterating reliability in times of need.
It’s a broken clock, they’ve got no time for you
Comparing unreliable people to a broken clock; emphasizing the need for a trustworthy friend.
All you need is a friend to tell secrets to
Stressing the importance of having a friend to confide in.
I’m here for you
Affirming the speaker's availability for emotional support.
You can count on me
Repeating the assurance of being dependable.
You can count on me
Reiterating the message of unwavering support.
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
Offering assistance during challenging times.
You can count on me
Repeating the commitment to being reliable.
I’ve seen great people slip away right before my eyes
Reflecting on the loss of great people and the transient nature of relationships.
They’re not here today
Acknowledging the absence of some individuals today.
You should know that I won’t disappear on you
Promising not to disappear or abandon the person being addressed.
No more barricades or walls of emotional stone
Expressing a commitment to removing emotional barriers.
No more dead-end streets that you walk down alone
Rejecting isolation by promising to eliminate emotional obstacles.
You can count on me
Reaffirming reliability and support.
You can count on me
Repeating the message of being a trustworthy companion.
When you’re locked up and need to be set free
Offering help in times of trouble.
You can count on me
Reiterating the commitment to being a dependable friend.
When you’re lost and you need new eyes to see
Extending support for those who are lost and need guidance.
You can count on me
Promising assistance in pursuing and achieving dreams.
I’ll help you follow through on all of your dreams
Committing to help in realizing and fulfilling aspirations.
You can count on me
Repeating the assurance of being a reliable source of support.
