Stand Beside Me-Jo Dee Messina

He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder He said he had to find himself out on the road I guess when love goes wrong You've gotta learn to be strong So I worked two jobs and I moved three times I ended up south of Memphis, workin' down in Riverside I may not be so lucky in love But the one thing I'm sure of I want a man that stands beside me Not in front of or behind me Give me two arms that want to hold me, not own me And I'll give all the love in my heart Stand beside me Be true, don't tell lies to me I'm not lookin' for a fantasy I want a man who stands beside me I didn't expect to see him, one hot July morning His hair was longer but his eyes were the same old blue He said, "I've missed you for so long Oh baby, what can I do?" I said, "I want a man that stands beside me Not in front of or behind me Give me two arms that want to hold me, not own me And I'll give all the love in my heart" Oh, it's hard to tell him, "No" When I want him so bad But I've got to be true to my heart This time I'm not lookin' for a fantasy I want a man who stands beside me I want a man who stands beside me Stand beside me Stand beside me
