Every time I've tried in my life I find it just won't turn out right I've spent the night with those I don't even like And that's why, I just wanna kiss you goodbye Every time I've give in to lust I find out that it's really Me that I can't trust But all the times before, They just don't matter no more Cause you're the girl that I've been dreaming of Stand by me I can't see me with anybody else Could anybody make me sleep so softly I can't see what I've felt I'm diving down the wishing well I think my heart is getting well One more time I'll sit on this cloud One more time I'll let my thoughts be heard out loud One more time I'll fight for what in my heart is right Cause you're the girl I'm dreaming about Stand by me I can't see me with anybody else Could anybody make me sleep so softly I can't see what I've felt I'm diving down the wishing well I think my heart is getting well Go ahead and say what you like But I'm at peace and I'm feeling alright
