Stand Beside Me

Ferlin Husky · I Could Sing All Night Long [Capitol] [1966]

(Tompall Glaser)



Stand beside me, stand beside me

You're the only one who ever made me care

I can't stand to think that I might be alone

Not alone again, not the way it was back then.



Before you walked into my heart

And told me we'd never part

So stand beside me

Don't ever let me be alone again.



Stand beside me, stand beside me

For if I should lose you I just couldn't get anywhere

Stand beside me, stand beside me

You're the only one who ever made me care.



--- Instrumental ---



Now the sands of time may turn our hair to silver

But growing old is fun if your young heart's true to one

You know it's true to you like it can't be with me and you

So stand beside me, I'll be standing right there

Yes, right there next to you.



Stand beside me, stand beside me

For if I should lose you I just couldn't get anywhere

Stand beside me, stand beside me

You're the only one who ever made me care...
