Standing By

I counted the stars tonight
 Oh, how they shine so bright
 I gather them all, so we perfectly align
 While we gaze from far away
 And separately watch the day
 Come rising across the horizon in our minds
 But now I know my heart is strong
 Where you belong is by my side
 So will you hold? 'Cause time is cold
 But in your soul, I'm standing by
 ♪
 I have waited a thousand years
 But now that tomorrow's here
 I will shout from the mountain top
 Our hearts belong near
 And we've traveled land and sea
 Our beacon, the love we keep
 But when we unite
 This will all have been our dream
 And now we know, our hearts are strong
 Where we belong is side by side
 And so we'll hold each other close
 And in our souls, we're standing by
 ♪
 And so we'll hold each other close
 And then we'll know we're standing by
