Stand In

Don Robertson - Hal Blair

© Ross-Jungnickel Music, ASCAP

I've tried to take a place in
You've tried to take care for me
But darling I'm afraid I'll always be

Only a stand in after all's said and done
I fought for your love I thought I had won
But I'm only a stand in for somebody else
What a dreamer that I've been I'm just standing in
[ piano ]
I wondered if you know dear that when I'm in your arms
Sometimes the name you whisper isn't mine
I've tried not to believe it but in my heart I know
I've only been a stand in all the time

Only a stand in after all's said and done
I fought for your love I thought I have won
But I'm only a stand in for somebody else
I thought I could win what a dreamer I've been
I'm just standing in
