I'll Stand By You
The Pretenders
From Last of the Independents

Oh, why you look so sad? The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
But don't, be ashamed to cry, let me see you through
'Cause I've been in the dark side to
When the night falls on you, and 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, but don't know, which path to choose
Let me come alone, 'cause even if 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 to, your darkness 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 to, your darkness hour
And I'll never desert 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
