I will stand

I will not be the one
Who turns his back and runs
When things get rocky down the line
And I will not be the one
Holdin' the smokin' gun
If our love don't stand the test of time

I'll love you forever
I will be your man
Beside you always
I will stand

I didn't say "I do"
To take control of you
I have no chains to hold you down
If you'll let me spread my wings
You'll get the best of me
Deep in your heart is where I'm bound

I will not forsake you
I will take your hand
Beside you always
I will stand

No matter what happens
This feeling will stay
Till the day that I die
You'll fill up the heart of my soul
That I'll take to the other side

And you'll be the only one
When all is said and done
I'll keep you close to me I swear
If ever you are down
No need to look around
Just close your eyes and I'll be there

I'll love you forever
I will be your man
Beside you always
I will stand
