Sometimes at night when it gets so quiet I think back to when we started So many years ago our love was so new We swore, you and I to forever be true And I reach into my soul So our love wouldn't fade You feel the same 'Cause we thought we had it made Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover No one could compare to the love we'd be And whatever life would roll our way You were by my side And we knew in each other's hearts We would always confide So I reach into my soul So our love wouldn't fade You feel the same 'Cause we thought we had it made Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover And just here we stand so many years later With our love as strong as yesterday We belong together I'm so lucky I found you I know we will always be Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover Stand by your lover Have the faith you need in you You gotta stand by your lover
