Please Stand By Me

Please love me and stand by me
It brings me comfort in times of need
When problems arise and hope slips through my hands
I hope you come closer and take a firm stand

Life will always have its ups and downs
I will not always be happy I will sometimes frown
But as long as you hold me and kiss me with care
The storm clouds will pass the day will be clear 

Trials and tribulations will engulf me sometimes
But I can weather the storm with you in my life
When small waves become a tumultuous sea
I know I will make it if you stand by me
