Lyrics

As we walk the wire
Across desperate times
Will tomorrow find us
Will you still be mine

Will we hold our child
Will he have a place
Is there a hope for the human race?

If it all comes true
And our dreams fall like bombs from the blue
Oh my love come stand by me

With a life between us
My love is green
I've got something to live for
A reason to dream

But where can we turn
Where can we hide
To find a future on the other side

If it all comes true
And our dreams fall like bombs from the blue
Oh my love come stand by me

And if it all comes real
Confirming this fear that I feel
Oh my love come stand by me
Stand by me

Little people like us, girl
Never have control
Of their destinations
When the plan unfolds

Will we walk in the sun
Will we lie in the shade
Is there a life for the love we've made?

If it all comes true
And our dreams fall like bombs from the blue
Oh my love come stand by me

And if it all proves real
Infecting this fear that I feel
Oh my love come stand by me

About The Song

From Steve Taylor Interview, Listen In, August 2005:

That's really Dave Perkins' song, and it's an awesome song. He had pretty much written that song right around the time the band was getting started, and I think we all thought, "if one of us can come up with a song this good, then maybe there's enough here to form a band around." It's just a great song.
