Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jon Bon Jovi, Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora] I guess this time you're really leavin' I heard your suitcase say goodbye Well, as my broken heart lies bleedin' You say true love is suicide You say you've cried a thousand rivers And now you're swimmin' for the shore You left me drownin' in my tears And you won't save me anymore I pray to God you'll give me one more chance, girl [Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora] I'll be there for you, these five words I swear to you When you breathe, I wanna be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you, I'd steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what love can do I'll be there for you [Verse 2: Jon Bon Jovi] I know you know we've had some good times Now they have their own hidin' place Well, I can promise you tomorrow But I can't buy back yesterday [Pre-Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Riche Sambora & Both] And, baby, you know my hands are dirty And baby, you know my hands are dirty But I wanted to be your Valentine I'll be the water when you get thirsty, baby When you get drunk, I'll be the wine, woah [Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora] I'll be there for you, these five words I'd swear to you When you breathe, I wanna be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you, I'd steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what love can do I'll be there for you [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora & Both] I wasn't there when you were happy I wasn't there to make you happy And I wasn't there when you were down, child Didn't mean to miss your birthday, baby I wish I'd seen you blow those candles out Oh-oh [Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora] I'll be there for you, these five words I'd swear to you When you breathe, I wanna be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you, I'd steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what love can do I'll be there for I'll be there for you, these five words I'd swear to you When you breathe, I wanna be the air for you I'll be there for you I'd live and I'd die for you, steal the sun from the sky for you Words can't say what love can do I'll be there for you [Outro: Jon Bon Jovi & Richie Sambora] Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-woah
