Stand By Me - Paul Humphreys

Finally a moment to ourselves

now tell me how long has it been

the last five years I just stopped counting

I guess you never did

Didn’t mind walking a few steps behind me

satisfied with me taken the lead

I’ve got some demons to conquer

and you’ve got the right to disagree

Stand by me take hold of my hand

tell me I’m always gonna be your man

Stand by me through thick and thin

and I’ll go on living and giving all that I can

How well I know it ain’t the first time

and I’ve been known to come in late

I had some people now trying to tell me how

to walk tall stand up straight

this time around is gonna be real

I don’t need no shaman telling me how to feel

I’ve got some demons to conquer

and you’ve got the right to say what you will

carrying that weight from some early days

yea we can’t afford to wait

or let the storm come and seal our fate

yea your only shown when your on your own

on the road alone

Stand by me take hold of my hand

tell me I’m always gonna be your man

Stand by me through thick and thin

and I’ll go on living and giving all that I can

Stand by me stand by me

honey you know I’m your man
