Close to My Soul

What would I be if I walked on my own? Would I stumble and fall in the dark? Take my hand now and I’ll tell you the truth, You put the fire right here in my heart. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends, Yeah, they bring true wealth with a little help from my friends, More than gold and things, with a little help from my friends. What do I do when the shadows descend? Does it worry me facing the night? How do I feel when I look at your face? I know you're holding me safe in the light. No, I don't feel poor no more, With a little help from my friends, Yeah, I'm richer than kings with a little help from my friends, Oh, I wouldn't trade you for the world, my friends. Do you need anybody? I need my family and friends. Could it be anybody? No, it's the ones on whom my whole life depends. You are the treasure that money can't buy, The breath in my lungs and the tears in my eye! Would you believe that you saved up my soul? I am certain you do it each day. What do I see when I look at your love? It chases the coldest of winters away. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends, You're the wealth of my life, with a little help from my friends, I wouldn't trade you for anything, my friends! Do you need anybody? I need every single one of you. Could it be anybody? You’re my blood, you’re my chosen, my true. Oh, I'm taking your love right along with me, Down every road that I'm rolling, You're worth more than all of the world to me, Lord, I'm keeping you close... Yes, I'm keeping you close to my soul.
