He left me cryin' late one Sunday night
Outside of Boulder
He said he had to find himself
Out on the road
I guess when love goes wrong
You gotta learn to be strong

So, I worked two jobs
And I moved three times
I ended up south of Memphis
Workin' down in Riverside
I may not be so lucky in love
But the one thing I'm sure of

I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me
Not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart

Stand beside me
Be truth, don't tell lies to me
I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man who stands beside me

I didn't expect to see him
One hot July mornin'
His hair was longer
But his eyes we're the same old blue
He said I missed you for so long
Oh baby, what can I do

I said I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me
Not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart

Oh, it's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad
But I've got to be true to my heart, this time
Woo...

I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man who stands beside me
I want a man who stands beside me
Stand beside me
Oh, ho, stand beside me
Oh, ho
