Stand By You

I got a girl who shines like diamonds

Cuts right through all the dark in my heart

You stand by me, I'll stand by you

There ain't nothin' we can't get through, hey!

When I met you, I was worse for wear

Torn and frayed, but you did not care

You said, "You stand by me and I'll stand by you"

There's nothin' in this world that we could not do

If life is what love gets you through

There ain't nothin' we can't do

So be the one I'll hold on to

Stand by me and I'll stand by you

Now troubles will come and troubles will go

If we keep on dancin', we'll never grow old

So you sing a song and I'll sing it too, yeah

Stand by me and I'll stand by you

If life is what love gets you through

There ain't nothin' we can't do

So be the one I'll hold on to, yeah

Stand by me and I'll stand by you

Stand by me, oh-oh, mm-mm

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Years from now when we look back

Tears of joy, we'll raise our glass

And say these words that still ring true

Stand by me and I'll stand by you

If life is what love gets you through

There ain't nothin' we can't do

So be the one I'll hold on to, yeah

Stand by me and I'll stand by you

All we ever have to do

Is stand by me and I'll stand by you

Oh, right by you
