Stand By Me
John and Paul Lyrics

You've seen every scar I don't show on my skin
You know all the pain I've experienced in life, even though I don't always let it show.

And you taste every word that hasn't passed my lips
You understand my thoughts and feelings without me having to express them.

You know my every smile and what they all mean
You can read my emotions based on how I smile and you know what each smile represents.

Happy, sad and broken or in between
Regardless of whether I'm happy, sad, or in between, you can tell and you're always there for me.

You stand by me
You support me unconditionally.

Through the longest nights
Even during the darkest and loneliest of times, you never leave my side.

Through the hardest times
No matter how tough or difficult things get, you are always there for me.

I know at times I get too much
I'm aware that I can be difficult to deal with and I truly appreciate how patient you are with me.

You must feel like giving up
I understand that it's hard to stick by me sometimes and it can be overwhelming, so I appreciate your resilience.

You've seen me dance on my two left feet
You know that I'm not a great dancer and I often make mistakes, but you still dance with me anyways.

But you're not ashamed to dance with me
You never judge me and you're never afraid to show me off, even when I'm not at my best.

When you make me lose my breath, you're the air that I need
When life gets overwhelming, you're the one who helps me to catch my breath and get through it all.
