Pretenders, The - I'll Stand By You Lyrics






Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

So if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'cause even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you

And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you

I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

    This was my wedding song in 1997. Then got a tattoo with the verse...When you're standing at the crossroads and don't know which path to choose, let me come along, cause even if you're wrong, I'll stand by you❤

  8. R.... Y....

    I don’t understand how a man who says he loves you and says is going to marry you can be so cold to you at the same time? 😢 can you men explain this please?

    R.... Y....

    Not all men like that, depends on types of heart, mindset and mentality. The good will be good, the bad will be bad. Same goes to women. Good men should pair with good women, the bad temper with bad temper and the bad with the bad. Shouldn't mix to avoid 1 side suffers

  9. g.... C....

    Música como essa faz agente voltar no tempo num passe de mágica

    Awesome 80s throwback ⚘❤

  33. J.... W....

    Someone I admire went thru a difficult time in the fall of 1994, when he went thru a 3rd loss in his life in a year. Wish I could have dedicated this song to him

  34. K.... C....

    Out of nowhere I began to cry. You took my husband, please tell me why.i begged God give him back on the count of ten. Closing my eyes the counting began. Unsure of what id see when my eyes open. Almost scared with them closed i could keep on hoping. Give him back, hes mine and belongs to me. You didn't ask if you could have him. Please just leave him be.i say what a gentleman you are all the time. Yet you murdered my husband and committed an awful crime. You are always playing around with my feelings. Enough is enough its time to finish healing. God ill give or do anything you say, if you give him back and bring him home today. You could make this have been just a bad dream
    But you won't because you require constant pain it would seem. Mad as I am i still have faith and I still believe. But i can't help but wonder why you enjoy when I grieve.

  35. a.... M....

    When i hear this song...-I truly listen and i see hope: People can really be there for one another although they may not always be at their best, when life gets real - some people truly stand by one another - if you have them in your life - let them how much they mean to your world! If you are where i am (greatful for a good life - but not wanting solo anymore) ...keep searching -keep reaching , i believe when i meet her...this song will be my new life! ( 2 much?)

  36. D.... E....

    la femme du diable ou la femme de Jésus?

    Nothing we confessed will make God love us less for he never leave us

  60. o.... d....

    12 years old. Came from South Africa to Portugal. I'm 38 now and I can count on my fingers the number of days I truly felt free and happy. I guess happiness is just moments in time. Seconds of a smile and an eternity of..
    survivng.

  61. D.... W....

    I love this song (I'm always the one to stand by someone when they're crying or sad) (never had that though) but I can't stand to see anyone's heart breaking hugs hugs...I'm a hugger... respectfully

  62. M.... W....

    Isn’t this song on Beaches? Song makes me sad.

  63. T.... S....

    classic vocals

  64. J.... S....

    Requiem for a dream

  65. S.... K....

    A song of love and devotion from a woman's standpoint.( I see it as the country version of Tammy Wynette's :"Stand by your Man"). I have an extremely low tolerance for a man acting like an idiot, but if he is right I am 210% behind him. I am still looking for Mr. 210%, but I don't think he exists so, I am an eternal widow. No Love lost.

  66. M.... L....

    Happy for you☺️

  67. I.... C....

    I'll Stand By You
    The Pretenders


    Oh, Why you look so sad?
    Tears are in your eyes
    Come on and come to me now
    But don't be ashamed to cry
    Let me see you through
    Cause I've seen the dark side too
    When the night falls on you
    You don't know what to do
    Nothing you confess
    Could make me love you less


    I'll stand by you
    I'll stand by you
    Won't let nobody hurt you
    I'll stand by you


    So
    If your mad, get mad
    Don't hold it all inside
    Come on and talk to me now
    But hey, what you've got to hide
    I get angry too
    Well, I'm a lot like you
    When you're standing at the crossroads
    Don't know which path to choose
    Let me come along
    Cause even if you're wrong


    I'll stand by you
    I'll stand by you
    Won't let nobody hurt you
    I'll stand by you
    Take me in into your darkest hour
    And I'll never desert you
    I'll stand by you


    And when
    When the night falls on you, baby
    You're feeling all alone
    Walking on your own


    I'll stand by you
    I'll stand by you
    Won't let nobody hurt you
    I'll stand by you
    Take me in into your darkest hour
    And I'll never desert you
    I'll stand by you
    I'll stand by you
    Won't let nobody hurt you
    I'll stand by you
    (Won't let nobody hurt you)
    I'll stand by you
    I'll stand by you
    Won't let nobody hurt you
    I'll stand by you

    The Pretenders - one of the greatest bands! And Chrissie Hynde - one of the most important singers in the history of rock music!

  69. M.... J....

    They don't make music like this anymore brings back so many memories

    M.... J....

    Bebe Rexha made one today lol

  70. 2.... ....

    I know this song from Dawson's Creek, I forget on which part. Anyone?

  71. L.... C....

    I understand the song was about her first love who not shake his heroin addiction

  72. L.... D....

    I so wish I could find a man who'd let me love him like that and love me the same. So tired of being alone...

    L.... D....

    I can relate. I've never even been approached by a man, and I dont approach them. I've never been able to even attract one. It would be nice to know, what it's like to be loved and cared about, by a man. I'm 49, by the way.

    L.... D....

    Its hard to find someone when that person you are looking for is that one drop in the sea. Expand your search and don't give up hope. There is someone out there for everyone, you will come together at some point if you both keep searching.

    L.... D....

    If anybody wants to love me like that I'm here. I need to be loved unconditionally 😢

  73. R.... A....

    Why the cockroach tho??

  74. C.... L....

    GLEE❤️

    C.... L....

    Fuck glee.

  75. K.... D....

  77. B.... D....

    Omg I love this song ! This woman ' I would do anything to bring these days back of great music

  78. B.... S....

    When i was in my darkest hour.... she lowered her hand and lifted me of from the depths of my own hell.......

  79. B.... G....

    Ty Amanda every thing you do fore even if I screw up you all was there

  80. D.... R....

    My favorite song...It means so much.

  81. m.... ....

    Remembering those who were killed on 9/11, 18 years ago today... :(

    (I've never been a huge fan of theirs, but this is my favorite song by them)

  87. W.... H....

    I have been singing this song since the first time I ever heard it back 25 yrs. ago. Never fails every show I go to or been at this is song is always requested for me to sing. It has touched so many ppls lives in such wonderful.ways. it is a reminder to never give up because When I sing it I can feel the Lord coming through me letting me know I am never alone. to never be afraid he is always with us carrying us through the darkest of our lives and there is ppl out there who will stand by you through it all. sometimes We dont know it because we forget that if we dig down deep inside our hearts The Lord will speak to you and speaks straight through your heart allowing u to know He is with us no matter what to believe and keep the faith. There is noone that does this song any better than the Pretenders. 100❤

    W.... H....

    ♥️👍

    W.... H....

    outstanding i have woken up to the fact that god was the only one standing next to me at times of hopelessness i figured out that i bailed on him today i praise the lord for my 10 years of sobriety i absolutely love this song there is hope

  88. B.... K....

    "Nothing you confess could make me love you less"

    B.... K....

    Then the guy says he is a pedophile and your like "well maybe there is one thing........." lol

    B.... K....

    My guinea pigs: well... Sometimes, I eat my own poo

  89. I.... M....

    Lagu kenangan yg tak terlupakan.

  90. E.... C....

    This is the only song that's made me cry....

  91. F.... I....

    You dedicated this song to me in 1994. Now I dedicate this song back to you, my cherub Monica; I and our son will always "stand by you" and never " let anyone hurt you."
