STAND TALL

BURTON CUMMINGS

1976

Never been this blue

Never knew the meaning of a heartache

But then again,

Somewhere down the road

Maybe all those years

will find some meaning

I just can't think about them now

Or live them out anymore

Stand tall,

don't you fall

For God's sake don't go and

do something foolish

All you're feeling right now

Oooooh,

Stand tall,

don't you fall

Don't you do something you

might regret later

You're feelin' it like everyone,

Never lasted so long, no,

or Through so much or through so many

I just can't believe

I could throw it all away

Sometimes late at night

When there's nothing here

except my old piano

I'd almost give my hands

to make you see my way

Stand tall,

don't you fall

Ahhhh,

For God's sake don't go and

do something foolish

All you're feeling right now

is silly human pride

You've got me down on

my knees for ya mama

Stand tall,

don't you fall

Ahhhhh,

Don't you do something you

might regret later

You're feelin' it like everyone,

It's silly human pride

Stand tall,

don't you fall

Ahhhh,

For God's sake don't go and

do something foolish

All you're feeling right now

is silly human pride
