Here's the poem that I wrote after a couple of hours of crying
"someone to lean on
it's what we all want
that person who can tell you
'everything will be fine'
and make you believe it
we've all had hard times
I'm no exception
it hurts to admit what I've done
my track record ain't perfect
those old mistakes haunt my thoughts
they stop me dead in my tracks
I shouldn't let these silly tears get in my way
they can't change what I've done
but they help the pain
I've got someone who is better than I deserve
He's brought me through a lot in a little time
That means so much to me
I won't be able to repay this debt
but I will try
He tells me that I look good
even when I feel shitty
Every time I need to vent
he's right there
Nothing else matters when I'm with him
Would I call this love?
I don't think so
it's too soon for that
There's a broken heart to mend
and that takes time
I've got plenty
So I guess we'll take it day by day
And lean on each other
Who knows what will happen?"

Stand Beside Me
Jo Dee Messina
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 a little 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 who stands beside me
I didn't expect 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."
Oh, 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
Ooh, oh, oh
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........
Oh, oh
Stand beside me........
Oh, oh
He said he had to find himself out on the road
I guess when love goes wrong
You've gotta learn to be strong

But the one thing I'm sure of

And I'll give all the love in my heart

Who stands beside me
Stand beside me........
Oh, oh
