Somebody Stand by Me

It's quiet here tonight
There's a light burnin' far away
It burns in my heart, in the rain, in the dark
Well, this girl's gonna have her dayI've been this alone for so long
I'm beginning to wonder why
I stand in one place, different name, different face
But no one's gonna see me break down and cryWon't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one time
Won't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one timeLord, 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 meI'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 everythingWell, 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 until I've had enoughWon't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one time
Won't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one timeOh, I don't understand
What's slipping through these hands
You'd think by now I'd know when to let go, so here I am
And I'm throwing down my one last hope, here I am
Won't somebody stand, stand by meStand by me, stand, stand by me
Won't somebody stand by me
I need, I need just somebodyI 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 hopeWon't somebody stand by me
Stand by me just one time
Won't somebody stand by me
Stand be me just one timeI 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
