Queen of the night Life of the party It's all an illusion You can't hide that big heart ache So stop the delusion Waitin' for someone's rescue My arms are right here for you. [Chorus] Through the wind and the rain Through the laughter and pain Count on me And when life isn't fair And there's nobody there I will be In a world of pretenders I am your defender And when it all comes down I'll be the last one standing. This is for life Don't ever doubt it You've already fallen Love is alive So stand up and shout it 'cause destiny's callin' The others who stand behind me They don't look nothing like me [Chorus] Waitin' for someones rescue My arms are right here for you [Chorus] Yeah yeah I'll be the last one standing Through the wind and the rain Through the laughter and pain I'll be the last on standing.
