Stand close, I will protect you
Through smoke where fire is near
Stand here, I'll carry you through
Through the waters when the floods appear
So stand close and I'll always be near
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
In life, I only chose you
I'll love you forever even when my heart ain't new
'Cause time is still on our side
But if you can't see, I'll be your eyes
So stand close, I'll be your light
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Stand close, let me carry your burdens)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Stand close, through the darkest of night)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Stand close, I'll take all of your hurting)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Stand close, you know I'll be your light)
Stand close, let me carry your burdens
Stand close, through the darkest of night
Stand close, I'll take all of your hurting
Stand close, you know I'll be your light
