In high seas or-a low seas, |
|
I'm gonna be your friend; |
|
I'm gonna be your friend. |
|
In-a high tide or-a low tide, |
|
I'll be by your side; |
|
I'll be by your side. (I heard her praying - praying - praying) |
|
I said, I heard my mother; |
|
She was praying (praying - praying - praying); yeah, and |
|
I - And the words that she said (the words that she said), |
|
They still-a lingers in my head (lingers in my head). |
|
She said: "A child is born in this world, He needs protection. Wo-oh, mm. God, guide and protect us. When we're wrong, please correct us (when we're wrong, correct us), And stand by me," yeah! |
