Lyrics

STAND BY ME UNTIL THE BREAK OF DAWN
Music&lyrics Markku Hietala©2009

Ride with me
One last time
Out on the prairie

Laugh with me
Like you used to
Make it seem you still care for me

I was slow to notice, how your smile lost its glow
How your laughter died, and your kisses turned cold.

Can you wait, a little while
And pretend it's all right
Can you stay, one more night
And pretend you are mine?
Stand by me, until the break of dawn.


Take a seat
By my side
As the moon's riding high

Let a breeze
Kiss your hair
And sing our love a lullaby

I was slow to notice, how your smile lost its glow
How your laughter died, and your kisses turned cold.

Can you wait, a little while
And pretend it's all right
Can you stay, one more night
And pretend you are mine?
Stand by me, until the break of dawn.
