Oh, why you look so sad
The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
And 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
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you, I'll stand
Won't let nobody hurt you

So if you're mad, get mad, yeah
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey there, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well, I'm alive like you

When you're standing at the cross roads
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'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

Baby, even to your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you, no
I'll stand by you

And when, when the night falls on you baby
You're feeling all alone
You're wandering on your own

I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you baby, won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you, I'll stand yeah
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you baby
I'll stand by you baby, I'll stand by you baby, I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you, I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
