It's quiet here tonight
there's a light burning far away
It burns in my heart
In the rain, in the dark
Well, this girl's gonna have her day
I've been this alone for so long
I'm beginning to wonde why
I stand in one place
Different name, different face
Butno one's gonna see me
Break down and cry
CHROUS:
Won't Somebody stand my me
Stand by me just one time
Won't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one time
Lord, I don't understand
What's slipping through these hands
you'd think by now I'd know
when to let go
Here I am
Won't somebody stand, stand by me
I'm not bending tonight
But I'm twisted and turned
and broken down
I'm starting to know the sound
Of nothing and no one and yet everything
Well, if God's here tonight
Are you here tonight
Maybe you could grab me up
Lord stand me on my feet
Give me strength and set me free
'Cause I'm not giving in
untill I've had enough
REPEAT CHROUS
Oh, I don't understand
What's slipping trough these hands
You'd think by now I'd know
when to let go
So here I am
And I'm trowing down my one last hope
Here I am
Won't someboby stand, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me just one more time
Won't somebody stand by me
just one time
I don't understand
What's slipping through these hands
You'd think by now I'd know
when to let go
Here I am
And I'm throwing down my one last hope
Won't somebody stand by me
just one time
won't somebody stand by me
just one time
I don't understand
What's slipping through these hands
You'd think by now I'd know
when to let go
Here I am
