Written by Marty Stuart

When she needs a friend
Then you'd better hold her

If she starts to cry
Then offer her your shoulder
If the world comes crashin' down
And leaves her full of doubt
Take her in your arms
Now that's what love's about
She needs to know you care
She needs to know you're there
If it takes crawling on your knees
To live up to your vows
No matter what it takes
We'll work it out somehow
Treat her like a lady
Now that's what love's about

She let me have her heart
I hope I never break it
She bared to me her soul
I could hardly take it
She gave me all she had

She said she could do without
Till the end of time
Now that's what love's about

She needs to know you're there
If it takes crawling on your knees
To live up to your vows
No matter what it takes
We'll work it out somehow
Treat her like a lady
Now that's what love's about
