Martin H. Samuel wrote the lyric about, 'being someone to lean on' and, suggesting a song in 6/8, sent it across the pond to Anders B. Jensen who composed and recorded the melody – then, Martin recorded this (out of tune) song.

DON'T TURN AWAY
SO YOUR SOMEONE SPECIAL DONE YOU DIRTY
NOW HE'S NOT SO SPECIAL AFTER ALL
DON'T TURN AWAY FROM ME I'LL BE THE ONE
THE ONE WHO'S THERE TO BREAK YOUR FALL
YOU DIDN'T SEE IT COMIN' I COULD'VE TOLD YOU SO
WOULD YOU EVER LISTEN NO YOU DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN YOU'RE IN NEED
OR BURN YOUR BRIDGES WHEN IN DOUBT
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN LIFE LOOKS EMPTY
YEAH TOGETHER WE CAN WORK THINGS OUT
WHEN THE DAM BREAKS AN' FLOODWATERS FLOW
YEAH LET IT GO FORGET ABOUT YOUR PRIDE
DON'T TURN AWAY FROM ME I'LL BE THE ONE
THE ONE WHO'S THERE TO STEM THE TIDE
I CAN FEEL YOU'RE HURTIN' BEEN DOWN THAT ROAD BEFORE
GIVEN TIME WE'LL HAVE YOU ON YOUR FEET ONCE MORE
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN YOU'RE IN NEED
OR BURN YOUR BRIDGES WHEN IN DOUBT
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN LIFE LOOKS HOPELESS
TOGETHER WE CAN WORK WE CAN WORK THINGS OUT
FOR I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED YOU YEAH YOU SHOULD KNOW BY NOW
YES I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED YOU COULDN'T HELP IT ANYHOW
SO LET MY LOVE LIGHT YOUR NIGHT SHOW YOU THE WAY TO GO
YEAH LET MY LOVE LIGHT THE WAY SO YOU KNOW-OH
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN YOU'RE IN NEED
OR BURN YOUR BRIDGES WHEN IN DOUBT
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN LIFE LOOKS EMPTY
YEAH TOGETHER WE CAN WORK IT OUT
DON'T TURN AWAY WHEN YOU'RE IN NEED
OR BURN YOUR BRIDGES WHEN IN DOUBT
DON'T TURN AWAY DON'T TURN AWAY
NO DON'T TURN AWAY FROM ME
