I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you.
I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you.
So it seems, everyone, I meet is scared of me if the look me in the eye.
But you’ve been feeling that way too, it seems like no one understands you,
always feeling like you’re on the outside.
Well don’t you know, that I’m as scared as you,
there aren’t many things I got the guts to do.
But I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you.
Every day, I promised you that I’d stay by your side and do everything you say.
And that’s what I intend to do, stick around and see this through,
‘cause as it stands I don’t see any other way.
You say “Stop before everybody gets the wrong idea, you don’t have to do this anymore”
But I can’t help the way I feel.
I wanna take care of you,
you and I will stand on equal ground
because we belong together even if you can’t see it now.
And I wanna be there to help make your dreams come true.
‘Cause you seem to want the same for me so I will take care of you.
I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you.
Come back to me! It’s settled now and I’ve made up my mind, you’re the only one I need.
I know you think you’re in the way, but I wanna spend all my days with you by me
and that’s the choice I’ve made.
You say “I’ll be fine I can make it on my own”
But you don’t you lie, you know that I’m your home
I wanna take care of you,
you and I will stand on equal ground
because we belong together even if you can’t see it now.
And I wanna be there to help make your dreams come true.
But I only ever let you down and now I don’t know what to do.
‘Cause I let you get away from me and now you’re lost and all alone.
But I swear that once I find you I’m never letting go.
I wanna take care of you,
you and I will stand on equal ground,
because we belong together even if you can’t see it now.
I wanna take care of you,
you and I will stand on equal ground,
because we belong together even if you can’t see it now.
And I wanna be there to help make your dreams come true.
‘Cause you seem to want the same for me so I will take care of you.
You and I will stand on equal ground,
because we belong together even if you can’t see it now.
And I wanna be there to help make your dreams come true.
‘Cause you seem to want the same for me so I will take care of you.
I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you, I got the guts to stand by you.
