Intro

Oh, why you look so sad

 The tears are in your eyes

Don't be ashamed to cry

 Let me see you through

 'Cause I've seen the dark side too

When the night falls on you

 And you don't know what to do

 Nothing you confess

 Can make me love you less

 I'll stand by you, I’ll stand by you

 I won't let nobody hurt you

 I'll stand by you

So, if you're mad, get mad

 Don't hold it all inside

 Come on and talk to me now

Hey, what you got to hide

 I get angry too

 Well I'm a lot like you

 When you're standing at the crossroads

 And don't know which path to choose

 Let me come along

 'Cause even if you're wrong

 I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you

 I won't let nobody hurt you

 I'll stand by you

 Take me in into your darkest hour

 And I'll never desert you

 I'll stand by you

And when, when the night

Falls on you, baby

 You're feeling all alone

 You won't be on your own

 I'll stand by you, I’ll stand by you

 I won't let nobody hurt you

 I'll stand by you

 Take me in into your darkest hour

 And I'll never desert you

 I'll stand by you

Oh, I'll stand by you

I'll stand by you
