You say you stand by your man   Tell me something, I don't understand   You said you love me, and that's a fact   And then you left me, said you felt trapped      Well some things you can explain away   But the heartache's in me till this day      You didn't stand by me, no, not at all   You didn't stand by me, no way      All the times when we were close   I'll remember these things the most   I see all my dreams come tumbling down   I can't be happy without you around      So all alone I keep the wolves at bay   And there is only one thing that I can say      You didn't stand by me, no, not at all   You didn't stand by me, no way      You must explain why this must be   Did you lie when you spoke to me?      Did you stand by me, no, not at all      Now I got a job, but it don't pay   I need new clothes, I need somewhere to stay   But without all of these things I can do   But without your love, I won't make it through      But you don't understand my point of view   I suppose there's nothing I can do      You didn't stand by me, no, not at all   You didn't stand by me, no way   Did you stand by me, no, not at all   Did stand by me, no way      You must explain why this must be   Did you lie when you spoke to me?      Did you stand by me?      Did you stand by me, no, not at all   Did you stand by me, no way   Did you stand by me, no, not at all   Did you stand by me, no way
