Gladys Knight & The Pips — Ill Be Standing By

[Verse 1] Please don't make it hard, hard on yourself Don't you know I understand if you find someone else I'll set you free, forget the promises you made to me But remember, if she ever, if she ever makes you cry [Chorus] I'll be standing, oh standing by if you need me Somewhere standing by To wipe the tears from your eyes [Verse 2] Ooh, you can't help if the feeling, if the feeling is gone But if I, if I only knew what did I, what did I do wrong? But now we're through, tell her she better be good to you But remember, if your new love, if she doesn't satisfy [Chorus] I'll be standing, oh standing by if you need me baby Oh, standing by, ooh ooh [Bridge] If she can do for you what I'm not able to I'll forget my pride and step aside 'Cause I want you to have the very best Even if it means my own happiness [Chorus] I'll be somewhere, oh, standing by if you need me baby Oh, standing by if you really really want me [Outro] Oh oh, standing by, call me baby Ooh, standing by Ooh baby baby, baby
