Baby love, you've cried a river of tears
Abandoned by a lover who was just not sincere
But I promise you, I'll never leave you alone
If you sail away with me baby, I will lead you to shore

If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright
If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright

Don't be disillusioned, maybe you need a friend
Somebody who will stand by you from beginning to end
But when you walk my way, I see the pair in your eyes
Sail away with me baby all the way to sunrise

If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright
If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright

You're a lady, and you need a man
Who will love you the way that I can
When you're hurting someone loving and strong
Who'll respect you and protect
Would you let me be the one

If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright
If you stay by my side
Everything will be alright
