Album Cover When The Time Comes

When The Time Comes

Tom Petty

3

This might sound strange, it might seem dumb

Depends on the side that you take it in from

Depends on the time, depends on the day

Depends on a lot of things, who can say

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you

Through whatever might come, wherever you run

Will you stand by me when the time comes

Baby do you understand, am I making this clear

Are you tuning me out 'cause I'm coming off weird

Well I don't care, that's all right

It's okay, I don't mind

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you

Through whatever might come, wherever you run

Will you stand by me when the time comes

This ain't the right time to say what's on my mind

I know, but I look in your eyes

And there's no real life at all

Baby hold on

And someday soon you'll come around

You know where I can be found

When your heart feels right, seek me out

We can talk more then babe, but right now

I just want to let you know that I will stand by you

Through whatever might come, wherever you run

Will you stand by me when the time comes
