Somebody Stand By Me

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 beginning 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'd know
Where 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 I'm starting to know the sound
Of something, no one, and yet everything

Well, if God's 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

I need someone to stand by me
Stand by me, just one time
Won't somebody stands by me
Stands by me, just one time?

I don't understand
It's slipping through my hands
You think by now I would know
Where to let go
But all I know is here I am baby
Stand by me?

I need someone to stand by me
Stand by me, just one time
Won't 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'd know
How to let go
But all I know is here I am
Stand by me

Here I am, baby
Stand by me
All I know is here I am baby
Stand by me
