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 too



When the night falls on you

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

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 when you're wrong



I'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 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

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

I'll stand by you

Won't let nobody hurt you

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
