Train In Vain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They say you stand
By your man
Tell me something
I don't understand
You said you loved me
And that's a fact
And then you left me
Said you felt trapped
Well, somethings you can explain away
But the heartache's with me till this day
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
All the times
That we were close
I remember
These things the most
I've seen all my dreams
Come tumblin' down
I can't stay happy
Without you around
So alone I keep the wolves a bay
And there's only one thing I can say
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
You must explain
Why this must be
Did you lie
When you spoke to me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Now I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through
Without you love I won't make it through
But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Stand by me, no way
Stand by me, not at all
Stand by me, no way
Stand by me, not at all
Stand by me, no way
