Stand With Me

Verse 1
The feel of cool water as the warmth of the sun is on my skin is only a small glimpse of paradise
The view would be better ? the fruit would be sweeter on my lips ? if you were right here to share in my delight
You?re the essence of my soul?s desire

Chorus:
Stand with me; I need you by my side
I can?t imagine one day without your love in my life
And my promise to you will last forever
Take my hand and I will be complete
Please stand with me..

Verse 2
The roar of the thunder, and the wind that blows hard outside my door
Are only reminders of my frailty
But I would feel stronger ? I would find comfort through the storm - If you were here now to put my mind at ease
You?d be my shelter through this endless night

Chorus:
Stand with me; I need you by my side
I can?t imagine one day without your love in my life
And my promise to you will last forever
Take my hand and I will be complete
Please stand with me..

Bridge
The future I thought I knew
Lost meaning when my heart found the truth
That my destiny is with you

Chorus:
Stand with me; I need you by my side
I can?t imagine one day without your love in my life
And my promise to you will last forever
Take my hand and I will be complete
Please stand with me..

I can?t imagine one day without your love in my life
And my promise to you will last forever
Take my hand and I will be complete ? to stand with you would bring me joy and peace -
Please stand with me..
Please stand with me
