Lyrics

By My Side
Copyright 2006 Diane Waters

You came along
I'd be a fool to say I never even noticed you
And before too long
You had captured my attention like the roses do
Innocence and time intertwine for you and I
And before I know it, I can't imagine walking down this road without you

Chorus
By my side
I have the love that I have wanted
Mystified, I wasn't looking
But I stumbled upon you
I couldn't help but wonder
Is this the kind of love that will last

You sang my song
It was the answer to a question that has troubled me
'Cause I could carry on alone
Tell me - why would I ever want to, if I could have you
Being with you now, is like breathing in and out again
And before I know it-I can't imagine walking down this road without you

Chorus 2
By my side
I have the love that I have wanted
Mystified, I wasn't looking
But I stumbled upon you
Before I know it- I can't imagine walking down this road without you

Bridge
And I just can't wait
I can't wait for forever to begin
And I just can't wait
I no longer wonder
If we will lose or we will win
And I just can't wait
It won't subside

Chorus
By my side
I have the love that I have wanted
Mystified, I wasn't looking
But I stumbled upon you
I couldn't help but wonder
Is this the kind of love that will last
And I just can't hide it
I need you by my side
