I'll Be Standing By

Standing in the shadows Waiting for your love light to shine on me When you're lonely and the pain shows Call me, I'll be right there to set you free Walking down a dark road to loneliness The night has no mercy I feel a need in me I can't express [Chorus] I'll be standing by I'll be standing by I'll be standing by Come to me, when you're lonely You need someone to love, let it be me The way you love me and hold me Made me realize how sweet love can be Standing on a backstreet in the falling rain, Cryin' for mercy, until you come to me and ease the pain [Chorus: x2] I'll be standing by There'll be no need to cry I'll be standing by Come to me, come to me, Cause I'll be standing, I'll be standing by --- I'll Be Standing By - Foghat
