Story Behind The Song

Our daughter was only a few months old and we were living in two different countries. I had taken a moment to reaffirm my long-distance love for my then boyfriend, who would become my husband the following year.

Song Description

We tend to see relationships from our side in terms of what we need. I think that the real depth of love creates a level platform for both our needs and our partners' needs with elevating one above the other. Here was my acknowledgement of what my husband needed and my commitment to deliver it. ? Many people are now discovering that I also speak Spanish fluently, and so I had to bring in a Latin beat on this one. ?

Lyrics

I stand with you
Through highs and lows
With rivers ever raging
Life's hugs and blows
We face them all together
Hand in hand Baby
Any storm we'll weather
I stand by you
Never mind the talk
Despite the glaring eyes
Life's journey we walk
And I'll defend our union
Against friend and foe
My shoulder you lean on
I stand under you
Worthy of the seat
Prince of my home
Your reign is sweet
Love drips from your lips
I'm overwhelmed
By how my story flips
I stand for you
What we believe
Together we seek truth
As one we'll achieve
and what others search for
We won't miss
In each other's arms
I stand behind you
wind to your sails
your dreams are now mine
we weave our tales
of triumph and of victory
We learn in stride
rewriting our own history
I stand upon you
your shoulders strong and brawn
your chest is firm
your waist drawn
you support all my mind
I hold on tight
leaving others behind
I stand in you
my lover my friend
falling and yet standing
time my heart did mend
I'm yours and you're mine
This simple fact
makes my soul on all to shine
Me quedo contigo
Me quedo a tu lado
Me quedo debajo de ti
Me quedo aqui por ti
Me quedo tras de ti
Me quedo encima de ti
Me quedo dentro de ti
