Lyrics
I Won?t Be Standing Alone
Words & Music by Rich Michelson © 2007
I heard the news from a friend yesterday
I fell to my knees and I cried
He said you?re telling me lies
You?ve been just telling me lies
I stared at the space that once filled mind
And wiped the tears from my eyes
So you?ve been telling me lies
Just telling me lies
At the end of the day there is one I must face on that road that takes me home
On that day when the light fades away I won?t be standing alone.
I read the news in the papers today
About a scandal that reaches high
High in the ranks they?ve disguised
The truth by telling us lies
Numb to these facts that now are all too clear
I look for a simple answer why
They?ve been just telling me lies
Just telling me lies
At the end of the day there?s only one I must face when that road takes me home
On that day when the light fades away I won?t be standing alone.
We?re in this world for such a short time
And on each other we must rely
But if the President can tell lies
How can we hope to survive?
At the end of the day there?s only one we must face when that road takes us home
On that day when the light fades away I won?t be standing alone.
At the end of the day there?s only one I must face when that road takes me home
On that day when the light fades away I won?t be standing alone.
