Lyrics
I Need You By My Side
by Sunlending Sky
VERSE 1
There was a time when I saw you smile
You suffered on through but it wasn't your style.
You said you could change but you
were not so willing to bend
VERSE 2
You moved to LA with me by your side
You took a gig and I got a life
Funny how life twists and turns
like leaves in the wind
CHORUS 1
You say that I, need you by my side
But you sold your soul before the ink had tried
Now you got your wish, though it's bitter sweet
Cause you gave away that which would make you complete
and I wish I may, and I wish I might, and
I wish just for once that you'd see the light
when our worlds collide, we're like fireflies,
we could shine
VERSE 3
Now your life is filled with sin
You smile has been replaced with that sinister grin
was it all worth it to leave our love behind
Every time you leave me alone
You think that I sit here and wait by the phone
Now it's clear that you're quickly loosin' your mind.
CHORUS 2
You say that I, need you by my side
But you sold your soul before the ink had tried
Now you got your wish, but it's bitter sweet
Cause you gave away that which would make you complete
and I wish I may, and I wish I might, and
I wish just for once to be by your side,
when our worlds collide, we're like fireflies,
we could shine
BRIDGE
You've been gone, for far too long
I can't even remember your face
I've dared to go on
I've watched you destroy our lives
and all that we knew
Now I have to walk away I turn my back on you.
CHORUS 3
You say that I, need you by my side
But you sold your soul before the ink had tried
Now you got your wish, but it's bitter sweet
Cause you gave away that which would make us complete
and I wish I may, and I wish I might, and
I wish just for once that I would be right,
when our worlds collide, we're like fireflies,
we could shine
You say that I, need you by my side
But you sold your soul before the ink had tried
Now you got your wish, but it's bitter sweet
Cause you gave away that which would make me complete....
