Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'Cause I've seen the dark side tooWhen the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you lessI'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by youSo, 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
But I'm a lot like youWhen you're standing at the crossroads
Don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'Cause even if you're wrongI'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
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 youAnd when, when the night falls on you baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your ownI'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert youI'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by youAnd I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
