Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the sky gets kinda stormy up above
I'll be there to stand by you
And you′ll be there to stand by me
When it seems that all our dreams have let us down
And you feel like life has played us for a clown
I'll be there to stand by you
Baby I depend on you so much, for that lovin′ that I need
Yes and you depend on me as much
I don′t wanna ever to be free
From the warm and tender kisses that we give
So forever just as long as we may live
I'll be there to stand by you
And you′ll be there to stand by me
Baby I depend on you so much, for that lovin' that I need
Yes and you depend on me as much
I don′t wanna ever to be free
From the warm and tender kisses that we give
So forever just as long as we may live
I'll be there to stand by you
And you′ll be there to stand by me
I'll be there to stand by you
And you'll be there to stand by me
