[Chorus]

I stand by you when you're falling

When the river is calling

I said I'll love you forever

We can make it together

[Verse 1]

What goes up must come down

With lots of friendly faces all around

And nothing's ever lifted me higher than a touch of your sweet desire

What went wrong will turn right

We just have to hold on through the night

As long as we are watching the fire

We'll be safe from the Devil's choir

‌

[Chorus]

I stand by you when you're falling

When the river is calling

I said I'll love you forever

We can make it together

Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

(Ooh) When things go wrong, it's easy to sing a sad song

(Ooh) Seems like nothing comes for free, yeah

(Ooh) And it won't take long, your fragile soul will soon be strong

(Ooh) I'll carry you so tenderly

What I wanna say is that

[Chorus]

I stand by you when you're falling

When the river is calling

I said I'll love you forever

We can make it together

‌

[Verse 3]

(Ooh) Breaks my heart seeing you, struggle with the things you do

(Ooh) Carrying the world on your shoulders

(Ooh) When did we become so much older?

(Ooh) How I wish I could say that all our troubles gonna blow away

(Ooh) But I won't quit until it gets better

(Ooh) Even if it takes me forever

[Chorus]

I stand by you when you're falling

When the river is calling

I said I'll love you forever

We can make it together‌

[Outro]

(Stand by you when the river) Yeah, we can make it, yeah, oh

(Stand by you when the river) Oh, whoa, oh

(Stand by you when the river) We can make it if we try, yeah

(Stand by you when the river)‌
