Standby

Let me be the one you run to
Run to
Let me be the one you dial when you make that move
When you need someone to talk to
You can come through
You can call my line
I’ll be standing by for you

Oh, babe
You wear that golden chain
But you fold under the weight
As you stand in my doorway
Right before you say goodnight
Am I more than just a friend
Ooh, you love to make me beg
Take the knife out of my leg
Help me walk again

Let me be the one you run to
Run to
Let me be the one you dial when you make that move
When you need someone to talk to
You can come through
You can call my line
I’ll be standing by for you

You in the candlelight
I’ll bring the sparkling wine
Something that’s hard to get
Like a Moussamoussettes
We can just play it cool
Already into you
In your vintage car
Listening to Shalamar
Need some time alone?
I ain’t mad at ya
Nothing set in stone
In my calendar
Quick as the click of a camera
I’ll be there on time
Standing by

Let me be the one you run to
Run to
Let me be the one you dial when you make that move
When you need someone to talk to
You can come through
You can call my line
I’ll be standing by for you
