Gene Pitney lyrics : "Your Old Standby"
Someone to share your heartaches when you cry
Someone you can depend on, who will always be around
I'm nothing more than just your old standby
(Chorus:)
If you could call me darlin, if you could call me dear
If you could learn to love me by and by
I wouldn't mind this waiting, for I could stand the pain
I'd be more to you than just your old standby
You wouldn't call me darlin and you wouldn't call me dear
I wonder if you'll miss me when I die
You have no consideration, you show no sympathy
I'm nothing more than just your old standby
(Repeat chorus)
