Oh why you look so sad
The tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
Cause I've seen the dark side too
.o0o.
"James, its ok to cry. Don't get mad at yourself." Lily walked the last few steps between them and hugged him.
"Go away lily! You don't understand!" He turned out of her hug and walked away. Sirius came to stand beside the motionless Lily. "Lily he just needs space. Give him time." Sirius said.
"No. If we leave him aone he wont have anybody to stand by him. We have to keep trying." Lily walked off to the same direction James had gone.
.o0o.
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
.o0o.
"Malfoy. Get away now!" Said Lily, holding out her wand.
"Or what? Is your little boyfriend gonna beat me up?" Malfoy mocked.
It was true. James looked horrible, bags under his eyes, the way he walked-slow, as if he was dragging himself.
Lily flicked her wand and Malfoy was hanging upside down.
.o0o.
So if you're mad get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide
I get angry too
Well I'm alive like you
.o0o.
"It's your fault Lily! Because im dateing you they killed my parents! It's your fault"
Lily fliched but didnt retort.
"WHY ARN'T YOU YELLING BACK"
"Because James"
"BECAUSE WHY? ARE YOU STUPID?" The instant the words came from his mouth he regretted it but didn't take them back.
"No James. Because i love you. And im going to stand here so you have someone to take your anger out on."
.o0o.
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cause even if you're wrong
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in into you darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
And when, when the night falls on you, baby
You feeling all alone
You won't be on your own
.o0o.
"James? Are you down here?" Lily called out softly.
"Yah"
Lily walked down the steps and over to him.
"James. It's ok. There in a better place. They did their job. In more ways than one. You love them, and i'm sad i will never get to meet them. But you have to know that i love you with all my heart.
"I know." James wispered. "It just hurts so much"
"It will get better James. I promise." She hugged him and sat by his side long after he fell asleep.
.o0o.
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I Won't let nobody hurt you I'll stand by you
Take me in into you darkest hour
I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
Oh I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
