Lyrics
This is our fork in the road
Love’s last episode
There’s nowhere to go, oh no
You made your choice
Now it’s up to me
To bow out gracefully
Though you hold the key, but baby
Whenever you call me, I’ll be there
Whenever you want me, I’ll be there
Whenever you need me, I’ll be there
I’ll be around
I knew just what to say
Now I found out today
That all the words had slipped away, but I know
There’s always a chance
A tiny spark will remain, yeah
And sparks turn into flames
And love can burn once again, but I know you know
Whenever you call me, I’ll be there
Whenever you want me, I’ll be there
Whenever you need me, I’ll be there
I’ll be around, yeah
Whenever you call me, I’ll be there
Whenever you want me, I’ll be there
Even if I have to crawl, I’ll be there
I’ll be around
Just call me on the phone, I’ll be there
I’ll never leave you alone, I’ll be there
Just call out my name, I know I know you know
I’ll be around
I’ll be skippin’ and a-jumpin’, I’ll be there
I’ll be a-rippin’ and running, I’ll be there
I’ll be calling out your name to let you know
I’ll be around
