Stand By - Mans Zelmerlöw

Stand by, stand by

We thought our lives were meant to last
We thought bad dreams were in the past
We thought forever was eternity

And if we, we try together we can climb
The highest mountains any time
We’ll live forever and eternally

‘Cause I can see stars taking cover
Stand by, I can see birds start to hover
Stand by, don’t forget nature’s our mother
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand

I can see water is breaking
Stand by, I can see people forsaking
Stand by, don’t forget nature is shaking
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand

The world is moving towards the end
The higher powers won’t defend
Our lonely planet, a mark in history

God save me, the trees that swung in summer sun
The children played their games for fun
I thought they’d live to see eternity

‘Cause I can see stars taking cover
Stand by, I can see birds start to hover
Stand by, don’t forget nature’s our mother
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand

I can see water is breaking
Stand by, I can see people forsaking
Stand by, don’t forget nature is shaking
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand

We can do anything, anytime
Let’s heal the wounds now

‘Cause I can see stars taking cover
Stand by, I can see birds start to hover
Stand by, don’t forget nature’s our mother
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand

I can see water is breaking
Stand by, I can see people forsaking
Stand by, don’t forget nature is shaking
Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
