(Burt Bacharach/Hal David)

When you go through a day
And the things that people say
They make you feel so small
They make you feel that
Your heart will just never stop aching
And when you just can't accept the abuse you are taking

Darlin' reach out for me
Don't you worry, I'll see you through
You just have to reach out for me
I'll be there and I'll comfort you
Oh yes, I will
Comfort you and love you
Oh how I'm gonna love you

When good friends prove untrue
And the things they do to you
They make you feel so bad
They make you feel that
You haven't a reason for living
So when you feel you
Could throw in the towel and just give in

Darlin' reach out for me
Don't you worry, I'll see you through
You just have to reach out for me
I'll be there and I'll comfort you
Oh yes, I will
Comfort you and love you
Oh how I'm gonna love you

They make you feel that
Your heart will just never stop aching
And when you just can't accept the abuse you are taking

Darlin' reach out for me
Don't you worry, I'll see you through
You just have to reach out for me
I'll be there and I'll comfort you
Oh yes, I will
Comfort you and love you
