Say you stand by your man

Tell me something I don't understand

You said you love me and that's a fact

Then you left me, said you felt trapped

Well some things you can explain away

But my heartache's in me till this day

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Did you stand by me

No way

All the times

When we were close

I'll remember these things the most

I see all my dreams come tumbling down

I won't be happy without you around

So all alone I keep the wolves at bay

There is only one thing that I can say

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Did you stand by me

No way

You must explain why this must be

Did you lie when you spoke to me

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Now I got a job

But it don't pay

I need new clothes

I need somewhere to stay

But without all these things I can do

But without your love I won't make it through

But you don't understand my point of view

I suppose there's nothing I can do

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Did you stand by me

No way

You must explain why this must be

Did you lie when you spoke to me?

Did you stand by me

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Did you stand by me

No way

Did you stand by me

No, not at all

Did you stand by me

No way
