They say you stand
By your man
Tell me something
I don't understand
You said you loved me
And that's a fact
And then you left me
Said you felt trappedWell,somethings you can explain away
But the heartache's with me till this day[Chorus]
did you stand by me
No,not at all
Did you stand by me
No wayAll the times
That we were closed
I remember
These things the most
I've seen all our dreams
Come tumblin' down
I can't stay happy
Without you aroundSo alone I keep the wolves a bay
And there's only one thing I can say[Chorus]You must explain
Why this must be
Did you lie
When you spoke to meDid you stand by me
No,not at allNow I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through
Without you love I won't make it throughBut you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do[Chorus: x2]Stand by me,no way
Stand by me,not at all
Stand by me,no way
Stand by me,not at all
Stand by me,no way
