By My Side

Don't you get ahead of me

And I won't leave you behind

If you get unhappy

Won't you show me a sign

There's no love like lost love

And no pain like a broken heart

There's no love like you and me

And no loss like us apart

Promises promise is only a word

And when softly spoken is never heard

And a heart is not a stone

And is fragile is fragile when alone

By my side by my side

Won't you be by my side

By my side by my side

Won't you be by my side

Oh my care for you

Is from the ground up to the sky

It's over under up above

Down below and to the side

There's no use in pretending

No use in saving face

For my love is never ending

And you are my saving grace

By my side by my side

Won't you be by my side

By my side by my side

Won't you be by my side

Won't you be by my side

Won't you be by my side
