The Voyager - Stand by me

When an army of 10,000 surround me, and I haven’t found a place to go.
And I need a couch to lay my head, wearied by the battles that never seemed to end.

I’ll find rest, if you stand by stand by me.
Just a cup of tea is all that I that I’ll need.
Stand by Stand by me, stand by stand by me.

When fear rose inside of me, drowned by the voices of the unbelievers.
And they try to bind me to my cross, I will hold on to me dreams even though they seem lost.

I’ll find hope, if you stand by stand by me.
Just to hear your voice is all that I that I’ll need.
Stand by Stand by me, stand by stand by me.

When my mother forgets my name, and my brothers, well, they barely recognize me.
And I roam these streets chasing my dreams, beyond the point of sanity.
I will not stop dear; I’ll not seize until I find my dream girl and make her mine.

What will you do if I woke up tomorrow in a bed with no more sorrow?
What will you do if you woke up tomorrow and your dreams came true?
What will I do if I woke up in a bed besides you?
I would just lay there for the rest of my days.

I turned my back to all my needs, and didn’t drink any water for my soul.
And I even forgot how to think and my heart, well, it forgot its worth.
But it was you love who kept my breath within me; just to hear your song was all I needed.
Because you woke me from my bed of sorrows and gave me hope for tomorrow.

And I’ll find Joy, if you stand by stand by me.
And to hold you in my arms for a while is all I that I that I’ll need, and to just hear you laugh.
So, Stand by Stand by me, stand by stand by me.

When my smile weighed heavy and I couldn’t pretend to be alright.
And I bared the burdens of the world on my shoulders, and I were my worst foe.
I never did what I did for the crown or the rewards.
But I did all I did to show the depth of my love for you.

I’ll find Strength, if you stand by stand by me.
And I’ll hang on just as long as you love, love me.
Stand by Stand by me, stand by stand by me.

If you told you no longer wanted this.
I would forsake all treasure chasing to win your heart.
Because you are worth more to me than all the world.
And the rubies and the pearls are not to be compared to your beauty.

What will you do if I woke up tomorrow in a bed with no more sorrow?
What will you do if you woke up tomorrow and your dreams came true?
What will I do if I woke up in a world with you?
That would be my home, for the rest of my days.
