Stand Beside Me

He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder

He said he had to find himself out on the road

I guess when love goes wrong

You've gotta learn to be strong

So I worked two jobs and I moved three times

I ended up south of Memphis workin' down in Riverside

I may not be so lucky in love

But the one thing I'm sure of

I want a man that stands beside me

Not in front of or behind me

Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me

And I'll give all the love in my heart

Stand beside me

Be true don't tell lies to me

I'm not lookin' for a fantasy

I want a man that who stands beside me

I didn't expect to see him one hot July morning

His hair was longer but his eyes were the same old blue

He said, I've missed you for so long. Oh baby, what can I do

I said, I want a man that stands beside me

Not in front of or behind me

Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me

And I'll give all the love in my heart

It's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad

But I've got to be true to my heart This time

I'm not lookin' for a fantasy

I want a man who stands beside me

I want a man

Who stands beside me

Stand beside me

Stand beside me
