I will not be the one Who turns his back and runs When things get rocky down the line And I will not be the one Holdin' the smokin' gun If our love don't stand the test of time I'll love you forever I will be your man Beside you always I will stand I didn't say "I do" To take control of you I have no chains to hold you down If you'll let me spread my wings You'll get the best of me Deep in your heart is where I'm bound I will not forsake you I will take your hand Beside you always I will stand No matter what happens This feeling will stay Till the day that I die You'll fill up the heart of my soul That I'll take to the other side And you'll be the only one When all is said and done I'll keep you close to me I swear If ever you are down No need to look around Just close your eyes and I'll be there I'll love you forever I will be your man Beside you always I will stand
