STANDBY
Written by Jim Reeves

I'm just a stand-by, stand-by in your heart
I'm just a stand-by, never play the leading part
I'm just an extra, an extra on your list
And if I left you, I never would be missed
I'm going somewhere, somewhere far away
Be gone a long time, I might even stay

The open road is calling me
I'll find a home on the rolling sea
I'll find a love where I will be...

More than a stand-by, a stand-by in your heart
Won't be a stand-by, I'll play the leading part
I'm going somewhere, somewhere far away
Be gone a long time, I might even stay
