Standing by sing and play along

I counted the stars tonight.

Oh, how they shine so bright.

I gather them all so we perfectly align while we gaze from far away

and sep'rately launch the day,

come rising across the horizon in our minds.

But now I know

my heart is strong.

Where you belong

is by my side.

So will you hold?

'Cause time is cold,

but in your soul

I'm standing by.

Ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa. Ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

I have waited a thousand years,

and now that tomorrow's here I will shout from the mountaintop.

Our hearts belong near.

And we've traveled land and sea,

our beacon the love we keep.

But when we unite, this will all have been a dream.

And now we know

our hearts are strong.

Where we belong

is side by side.

And so we'll hold

each other close,

and in our souls

we're standing by.

Ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

Ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

Ooh, whoa, whoa,

ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa. Ooh, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

And so we'll hold

each other close,

and then we'll know

we're standing by.
