[Verse 1]
Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday
I've got a lot of things to learn
Said I would and I'll be leaving one day
Before my heart starts to burn
[Bridge]
So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new...
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away
[Verse 2]
Times are hard when things have got no meaning
I've found a key upon the floor
Maybe you and I will not believe in
The things we find behind the door
[Bridge]
So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new...
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away
[Chorus]
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows... yeah nobody knows the way it's gonna be
[Verse 3]
If you're leaving will you take me with you
I'm tired of talking on my phone
There is one thing I can never give you
My heart will never be a home
[Bridge]
So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new...
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away
[Chorus]
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows...
Yeah nobody knows the way it's gonna be
[Bridge 2]
The way it's gonna be, yeah
Maybe I can see, yeah
Don't you know the cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away (hey, hey)
[Chorus 2]
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me - nobody knows...
Yeah, God only knows
The way it's gonna be
