Stand With Me

The truth isn't always what you want to hear
And neither is it what you want to tell
When you’ve had a hard road, a dark road
I should’ve been careful
And love isn’t always what you think it is
And you could be swept away without even knowing it
And it could be the wrong thing
Such a wrong thing if you aren’t careful
So won’t you stand with me
And give me reassurance for tonight
Oh, won’t you stand with me
And tell me I’m a fool if I don’t fight
Stand with me, ‘til everything’s alright
And patience isn’t always what you need
When you know you weren’t doing the right thing
Redemption is a humbling reward
And I’m humbled to the floor, when I’m not careful
So won’t you stand with me
And give me reassurance for tonight
Oh, won’t you stand with me
And tell me I’m a fool if I don’t fight
Stand with me, ‘til everything’s alright
And I am but flesh and bone
And it’s a familiar haunt to dwell on, the mistakes I’ve made
And there is a place I go
A place that will let me know, you are right here with me
The truth isn’t always what you want to hear
And neither is it what you want to tell
So won’t you stand with me
And give me reassurance for tonight
So won’t you stand with me
And tell me I’m a fool if I don’t fight
Tell me I’m a fool if I don’t fight
Stand with me, ‘til everything’s alright
