Will you stand up for me
Can you be strong for me
Wil your love help me see it through
Boy I'm counting on you
Like a dream coming true
When you stand up for me
I stand up for you
Did you just make a promise
Is that what I've just heard
I hope you're being honest
Can you be your words
I've never had a reason
To ever trust before
So baby don't be teasing
Open up that door
Baby, stand up for me
Be strong for me
With your love I can see it through
Boy I'm counting on you
Like a dream coming true
When you stand up for me
I stand up for you
My man is strong and gentle
It's in the way he moves
A certain sentimental
Rhythm in his grooves
I hear my one and only
He whispers on the phone
You know I'm never lonely
No, I'm not alone
Stand up for me
Be strong for me
With your love I can see it through
Boy I'm counting on you
Like a dream coming true
When you stand up for me
I stand up for you
I want a man who
Can see it through
I wanna be close to you
You know I'm building
A life from love
That we never knew
Will you stand up for me
Be strong for me
With your love I can see it through
Boy I'm counting on you
Like a dream coming true
When you stand up for me
I stand up for you
Stand up for me
Stand up for you
Be strong, baby
We could see it through
Stand up for me
Stand up for you
Be strong, baby
We could see it through
Baby,stand up for me
Be strong for me
With your love I can see it through
