Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The storms of life are gonna blow through, baby
You know we've all seen a cloud or two
But I meant it when I promised I would have your back
Through sky black or blue
Do you remember how we swore forever
Till the sweet or the bitter end?
Well, this is what they mean when they say
You got the real thing in a friend
[Verse 2]
Arms open wide
I'll be your umbrella when you just can't stand the rain
I'm there by your side
I wanna be your shelter when you just can't stand
When you just can't stand the rain
[Verse 3]
I don't know where the road you're on is gonna end up
Or what this crazy world will put you through
But don't you worry 'bout me, baby
You just go and do what you gotta do
I'll still be here for you
[Verse 4]
With arms open wide
I'll be your umbrella when you just can't stand the rain
There by your side
I wanna be your shelter when you just can't stand
When you just can't stand the rain
[Verse 5]
When you can't take it even one more day
No, I'm never too far away
Even when you feel like you're out there on your own
No, you're not alone, no
Oh, no
[Verse 6]
With arms open wide
I'll be your umbrella when you just can't stand the rain
(I'll be there by your side) There by your side
I wanna be your shelter when you just can't stand
When you just can't stand the rain
[Verse 7]
Oh, yeah
When you just can't stand the rain
When you just can't stand the rain
