I stood at the door
And watched while you drove away
Driving my car in the rain, in the dark
Well, every dog seems to have her day.
I`ve been in this, alone so long
And I`m begining to wonder why
I stand in one place a different name -- a different face
No one`s gonna see me cry
I need someone to stand by me
Stand by me, just one time.
I hope somebody stands by me
Stands by me, just one time
I don`t understand, it`s slipping through these hands
I think by now I know when to let go
All I know is here I am baby
Won`t you stand by me?
I`m not bending tonight
But I`m twisted and turned and broken down
But Im starting to know the sound of something
No one and yet everything
Well if God is here tonight -- are you here tonight?
Maybe you could grab me up
Stand me on my feet give me strength
Set me free
I`m not giving in till I`ve had enough
