Don't shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you tonight,   You're walking away from me and feeling fine.   Up to my neck in the panic that I can't hide,   You're running far from, the rest of them lied.   Ground into the stones and the weather that I can't win,   I've fallen far within, my exit's right.      And I guess I didn't want to make you stand by.      Stand by myself in a field of cane and rice,   Said I won't kiss and tell, but I might.   Write a letter with a hand so taken by haste,   What a bitter taste, so righteous and bright.      And I guess I didn't want to make you stand by.   All these things, we'll make it through   Stand by..
