Mmh, yeah yeah

Ohh, if you're lonely
And need a friend
And troubles seem like
They never end
Just remember
To keep the faith
And love will be there
To light the way

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again
So don't you fear
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
Love will make it alright

When the shadows are closing in
And your spirit diminishing
Just remember you're not alone, oh no no
And love will be there
To guide you home

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again (no)
So don't you fear (don't worry, don't fear)
Even if you're miles away (yeah)
I'm by your side (I'm with you, wherever you are)
So don't you ever be lonely
Love will make it alright

If you just believe in me
I will love you endlessly, oh
Take my hand, take me into your heart
And baby I'll be there forever baby
I won't let go
I'll never let go

Anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again
So don't you fear (don't you worry and don't ever fear)
Even if you're miles away ('cause I'm with you)
I'm by your side (wherever you are)
So don't you ever be lonely
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Woo
Yeah, yeah yeah

Don't you ever be lonely, don't you ever be lonely
Don't you ever be lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely

Don't you ever be lonely, don't you ever be lonely
Don't you ever be lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely

Don't you ever be lonely, don't you ever be lonely
Don't you ever be lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely

And anytime you need a friend
I will be here
You'll never be alone again (you're never alone again)
So don't you fear (don't fear)
Even if you're miles away
I'm by your side
So don't you ever be lonely
It's alright ('cause it's alright, ay)

Anytime you need me, anytime you want me
Don't ever be lonely, it's alright
Anytime you need me, anytime you want me (anytime)
Don't ever be lonely, it's alright
Thank you Tokyo

Anytime you need me, anytime you want me (good night)
Don't ever be lonely (thank you to the dancers)
It's alright (thank you to the choir)
Anytime you need me (thank you to the band)
Anytime you want me (and the Fabulous Four)
Don't ever be lonely (good night), it's alright
