You Stood By Me

You Stood By Me

I can’t explain the way I feel,

broken, hurt, full of pain.

But you swept in,

and dried my tears.

Keeping me strong,

keeping me sane.

When it fell to pieces,

you were the glue.

Stitching together

my broken heart.

If only you knew,

how much it meant.

Those late night calls,

those long, long talks.

You heart spoke,

without a word.

Your silence answered,

all my fears.

Making me live,

when nothing mattered.

Giving me hope

and giving me will.

Even today,

if you said goodbye.

I would be sad,

but I can’t be blue.

You stood by me,

and gave me strength.

I can’t explain,

how grateful I am.

A cross too heavy,

you helped me bare.

And thanks to you,

I’m whole again.
