Long be safe in these arms

I will hold you down

Keep you safe from harm

Ride your fears to ground



But it won't account for much

No, it won't account for much



Stand by me now, don't go leaving this heart,

When I'm giving you all that I have

Stand by me now, turn you mind from the past

'Cos I'm giving you all that I have



Store your faith in these arms

I will hold you down

Keep you safe from harm

Start from all you've found



But it won't account for much

No, it won't account for much



Stand by me now, don't go leaving this heart

When I'm giving you all that I have

Stand by me now, turn you mind from the past

'Cos I'm giving you all that I have



Stand by me now, don't go leaving this heart

When I'm giving you all that I have

Stand by me now, turn you mind from the past

'Cos I'm giving you all
