lyrics

I can’t fight your battles for you, my friend,
But I can try to keep your wounds from bleeding,
And even as these tears run down,
Washing the street,
Just know that I’m standing by,
Waiting in the wings.

This is your scene, this is your stage, my friend,
The curtain won’t rise until you take your place,
The orchestra plays, the audience waits,
Expectantly,
And know that I’m standing by,
Waiting in the wings.

I hope you know this is what friends are for,
Helping each other be who we were meant to be.
I want to be your friend,
Please let me be your friend,
Till then I'll be
Waiting in the wings.

It was a good day I found you going my way,
The same destination, same declaration:
We're heaven-bound,
–And when I was lonely, deep in the valley,
When I was weak,
You were there standing by,
Waiting in the wings.

I started your fan club,
Chaired every meeting,
I bought the jersey,
I joined the cheer team.
