[Verse 1] When my phone went dark And my plans fell through You showed up with fries And that old blue hoodie You knew I was low You knew what to do You said, “Say less, I’m here” And you pulled me through [Pre-Chorus] Some people fade Like a train in the rain But you stay close Through the hurt and the strain [Chorus] Always there, always there When I’m breaking down Always there, always there You don’t back out now True friends are rare But you’re right here, right here Always there, always there When I need you near [Verse 2] Late-night checkout line With a busted cart You made me laugh so hard I forgot the hard part You keep my secrets safe You tell me the truth You don’t need a crown To be one of the few [Pre-Chorus] Some people talk Then they vanish fast But you hold on You’re built to last [Chorus] Always there, always there When I’m breaking down Always there, always there You don’t back out now True friends are rare But you’re right here, right here Always there, always there When I need you near [Bridge] If the whole world shifts And the floor gives way I know where to run I know who will stay No grand speech Just your steady hand That’s the kind of love That makes me stand [Final Chorus] Always there, always there When I’m breaking down Always there, always there You don’t back out now True friends are rare But you’re right here, right here Always there, always there When I need you near Always there, always there You’re still right here
