美國樂壇天后［惠妮休斯頓］＆福音歌姬［西西溫納斯］──靈魂流行抒情曲──［Count on Me／依靠我］

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on

Call on me, I will be there
Dont be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me

I can see its hurting you
I can feel your pain
Its hard to see the sunshine through the rain
I know sometimes it seems as if
Its never gonna end
But youll get through it

Just dont give in cause you can

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Dont be afraid

Please believe me when I say
Count on me

I know sometimes it seems as if
Were standing all alone
But well get through it
Cause love wont let us fall

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on

Call on me, I will be there
Dont be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me

Theres a place inside all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love

The answers there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
Its much harder than it really is
But well get through it
Just dont give in

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on

Call on me, I will be there
Dont be afraid
Please believe me when I say

Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me

Oh yes you can
Oh I can
Sure you can
So glad I can count on me
Count on you girl
