Stand By You
Patti LaBelle Lyrics

Oh, why you look so sad?
I notice that you are very upset. Please tell me what's wrong.

Tears are in your eyes
I can see that you are hurting a lot because you are crying.

Come on and come to me now.
I am here for you and would like to help you in any way that I can. Please come to me for support.

Don't be ashamed to cry,
It is okay to express your emotions and cry if that's what you need to do. You should not feel embarrassed for showing your emotions.

Let me see you through
I promise to support you during this difficult time and be there for you every step of the way.

Cause I've seen the dark side too.
I have also experienced difficult times in my own life, so I understand what you're going through and can empathize with you.

When the night falls on you,
When times get tough and you feel like you're alone in the darkness,

You don't know what to do,
When you're feeling lost and confused,

Nothing you confess
There is nothing you could say or do that would make me love you any less.

Could make me love you less
I care about you deeply and my love is unconditional.

I'll stand by you,
I will be there for you through thick and thin.

I'll stand by you,
I am here to support you no matter what.

Won't let nobody hurt you,
I will do everything in my power to protect you from any harm that may come your way.

I'll stand by you.
No matter what happens, I am here for you and will remain by your side.

So, if you're mad get mad,
If you are feeling angry, you are allowed to express that emotion and I will still support you.

Don't hold it all inside,
It is important to express your emotions, even if they are negative. Let it out so you can move forward.

Come on and talk to me now.
Please don't keep your feelings bottled up. Talk to me so I can help you work through them.

And hey, what you got to hide?
You can trust me, so there is no need to hide anything from me. I am here to support you through anything.

I get angry too
I also experience emotions and get angry at times.

But I'm alot like you.
At the end of the day, I'm human too and we all have similar struggles and experiences.

When you're standing at the crossroads,
When you're faced with a difficult decision and don't know which way to turn,

Don't know which path to choose,
When you're feeling lost and unsure about your future direction,

Let me come along,
Please let me be a part of your journey and let me support you through this decision.

Cause even if your wrong
Even if you make a choice that doesn't end up being the best one, I will still be here to support you and help you pick up the pieces.

Take me into your darkest hour,
Even in your toughest moments, please allow me to be there for you and help guide you through the darkness.

And I'll never desert you.
I will always be here when you need me, and will never abandon you.

And when, when the night falls on you baby,
When things get difficult and you feel alone,

You're feeling all alone,
When you feel like there is no one else there for you,

You won't be on your own,
Remember that you can always rely on me to be there for you.

I'll stand by you.
No matter what happens, I will always be here to support you and stand by your side.

I'll stand by you
My love for you is unwavering and I will always be here to support and care for you.

I'll stand by you,
No matter what happens, I will be here to support you and help you through it all.

Won't let nobody hurt you.
I will always be here to protect you and keep you safe from harm.

I'll stand by you
My love and support for you will never waver, no matter what you are going through.

Take me into your darkest hour
Please don't be afraid to rely on me for support, even in your most difficult moments.

And I'll never desert you
No matter what happens, I will never leave your side and will always be here for you.

I'll stand by you.
I will always be here to offer support and love when you need it most.
