Stand By Me lyrics

I believed
We would last for centuries
Found it perfect
Although some did not agree
I could not imagine why we, wouldn't last
They said, we were too different and rushed
much too fast
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/darin/stand_by_me.html ]
/Chorus:
It took one look into your eyes to know that
I will love you endlessly
Though everybody said don't bother you
don't belong together
You decided to stand by me

We proved, them wrong
Beat the odds, together still
I kept believing
Always have and always will
I could not imagine why we wouldn't last
I am glad we rose above and beyond,
let it pass

/Chorus

Now look what we've got and how far we
have come
I'm so proud we're still holding on,
staying strong

/Chorus x 2
