ARE YOU THERE WHEN by Richard Maxfield Are you there when she needs her talk, Are you there for her to give you a call Are you there when she feels small Are you there to make her feel tall Are you there when wakes with fright Are you there to hold her tight Are you there to tell her good night Are you there to give her a kiss when its you that she really does miss Are you there to wash her away her tears Are you there to calm her fears Are you there when she needs a friend or is your love something you have to send Are you there to take her to school Are you there when she feels like a fool Are you there to teach and to show Are you there to see her grow Are you there when its love she needs Are you there to encourage good deeds Are you there when she wants her mom Are you there for the school prom Are you there when she starts to cry Are you there to see her fly Are you there to say good job Are you there when she starts to sob Are you there when a female whats she needs Are you there to cook her meals Are you there to hear how she feels Are you there when wash her clothes Are you there when is anger she shows Are you there when she needs to fight so what gives you the right Are you there
