Stand Beside Me Lyrics

He left me cryin', late one Sunday night
Outside of Boulder.
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.
Ended up just south of Memphis,
workin' down in Riverside.
I may not be so lucky in love,
but the one thing I'm sure of is

Chorus:
I want a man to Stand 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 to Stand Beside Me.

I didn't expect to see him
One hot July mornin'.
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 to Stand 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 to Stand Beside Me.

Oh, 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
Oooooh
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........
