He left me cryin' late one
Sunday night outside of Boulder
He said he had to find
himself out on the road
I guess when love goes wrong
You've gotta learn to be strong
So I worked two jobs
and I moved three times
I ended up south of Memphis
workin' down in Riverside
I may not be so lucky in love
But the one thing I'm sure of
I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want
to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart
Stand beside me
Be true don't tell lies to me
I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man that who stands beside me
I didn't e pect to see
him one hot July morning
His hair was longer but his
eyes were the same old blue
He said, I've missed you for so
long. Oh baby, what can I do
I said,
I want a man
that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want
to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart
It's hard to tell him no
when I want him so bad
But I've got to be true
to my heart This time
I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man who stands beside me
I want a man
Who stands beside me
Stand beside me
Stand beside me
