Lean on me - Bill Withers

Se fue Bill Withers, cantante y compositor de temas tan conocidos como Ain’t no sunshine o Use me. Gozó de gran éxito en las décadas de los 70 y 80 llegando a ganar varios premios Grammy a la mejor cancion de R&B.

Su prodigiosa voz y sus composiciones hicieron que desde hace mucho formara parte de mis preferencias musicales. En concreto siento predilección por este maravilloso canto a la amistad que es Lean on me y su aportación al célebre tema de Grover Washington Jr., Just the two of us.

Hasta siempre

Hmm... hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow

 

But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

 

Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...

 

For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on

 

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow

 

For no one can fill
Those of your needs that you won't let show

 

You just call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on

I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

 

Lean on me
When you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on...

 

For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need somebody to lean on

You just call on me brother
When you need a hand
 

We all need somebody to lean on

I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
 

That you can't carry

I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

 

Call me
If you need a friend
(Call me)
Call me (call me)
If you need a friend
(Call me)
If you ever need a friend
(Call me)
Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me)

If you need a friend
(Call me)
Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me) Call me
(Call me)
