They say you stand by your man Tell me something I don't understand You said you love me oh, and that's a fact And then you left me, said you felt trapped Well there's some things you can't explain away And this heartache's with me to this day Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way All the times that we were close, I remember these things the most I've seen my dreams come tumbling down I can't be happy without you around So alone I keep the wolves at bay And there's only one thing I can say Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way --- Instrumental --- So explain why this must be Did you lie when you spoke to me? hey Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way I got a job but it don't pay I need new clothes, Somewhere to stay Hey, without these things I can do But without your love I can't make it through But if you don't understand My point of view Then there's not a damn thing I can do Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way Chorus: Did you stand by me? No not at all Did you stand by me? No way...
