I’ll Stand By You

Performed by The Pretenders

(Steinberg/Kelly/Hynde)

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

CHORUS:
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 have 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 if you're wrong

REPEAT CHORUS:
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

REPEAT CHORUS:
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
