Honey, I know we're caught in the center Of turbulent weather for now But one thing I know Is the world is uncertain But certainly turning around I'll be here a long time I'll be in it for as long as you like And no matter what you and I do Whatever comes next, I'll be right there beside you 'Cause I'm right where I wanna be I'll be right there beside you I know right where I wanna be I'll be right there beside you I'll be right, I'll be right, I'll be right Ridin' right beside you Oh, you know right where I'm gonna be Right there beside you Water is rising, the levee is broken It's flooding commotion this way And it feels like we're sinking But things will get better We'll hang on together okay I'll be going nowhere I'll be in it with you, honey, I swear And no matter what you and I do Whatever comes next, I'll be right there beside you 'Cause I'm right where I wanna be I'll be right there beside you I know right where I wanna be I'll be right there beside you I'll be right, I'll be right, I'll be right Ridin' there beside you Oh, you know right where I'm gonna be Right there beside you I'm not alone, no And neither are you It's a hell of a time to be living through I'm not afraid, no And you shouldn't be, too I've got one hand to hold the roof down And the other's holding on to you Holding on to you Oh, you know right where I'm gonna be Oh, I'll be right, I'll be right, I'll be right Ridin' right beside you Oh, you know right where I'm gonna be Ridin' right beside you (I'll be right there beside you) I'll be right, I'll be right, I'll be right Ridin' right beside you (I'll be right there beside you) I'll be right, I'll be right, I'll be right Ridin' right beside you I'll be right there beside you (I'll be right there beside you) I'll be right there beside you (I'll be right there beside you) I'll be right there beside you (I'll be right there beside you) I'll be right there beside you

I'm dancing in the shadows of life And death is half around me tonight I miss you, they can lie to me right Beside myself, I'm halting new time Someone is awaiting for me to rise And dive into the ocean I cried and I cried and I cried my baby to sleep Beside myself my soul to keep Right beside you I see Right beside you I stay Right beside you I'll be Right beside you I'll wait We're dancing in the shade of the summer sun The drums are playing and change to come what's yesterday In the heat, beside myself I need a key Right beside you I feel Right beside you I am Right beside you I near Right beside you I stand Right beside you Right beside you I'll wait, oh Right beside you I see Right beside you I stay Right beside you I'll be Right beside you I'll wait

Beside you forever I'm thankful each day that you picked me for your own Your love and devotion changed my life beside you I couldn't go on Beside you darling life's one happy dream you've brought a new world to my heart My life was empty before I met you beside you till death do we part [ Steel ] Beside you proudly we'll walk down the isle to start a new world for us two The love we share will grow through the years for this happiness I all owe to you Beside you darling life's one happy dream...

Please take away from me All these things I do not need Use me to keep your conscience clean Show me what to do To sacrifice for you I gladly give my life to you I've wandered far enough to never have given up too much And now I'm offering you everything I am Give me your hand I'm walking on thin ice And I know you can deliver me More than good advice Teach me with your deep love How to look inside And not be afraid To shine You are my destiny The path I'm cutting tirelessly And searching for you endlessly Even when I'm Surely in the heart of you I still persist on collecting proof that You are never known and though I feel you I have grown to wonder if I'll ever really understand Give me your hand I'm walking on thin ice And I know you can deliver me More than good advice Teach me with your deep love How to look inside And not be afraid To shine 'Cause I've been a fool Pretending to be free When all I could do was run away When the spot light caught me Heal me with your sweet love 'Cause I do believe When I open my eyes in front of you I see Give me your hand I'm walking on thin ice And I know you can deliver me More than good advice Teach me with your deep love How to look inside And not be afraid To shine 'Cause I've been a fool Pretending to be free When all I could do was run away When the spot light fell on me Heal me with your sweet love 'Cause I do believe When I open my eyes in front of you It's the truth I see

Guilty undertaker sighs Lonely organ grinder cries Silver saxophones say i, I should refuse you Cracked bells and washed out horns Blow into my face with scorn It's not that way I wasn't born to lose you I want you I want you Darling, i want you So bad Drunken politicians leap Onto the street where mothers weep And saviors who are fast asleep They wait for you And I'll wait for them to interrupt me Drinking from my broken cup And ask me To open up the gate for you I want you I want you Darling, I want you So bad I want you Darling, I want you, oh Oh, I want you Oh, so bad Now all my fathers, they've gone down True love, they've been without it And all their daughters, they still put me down 'Cause I think about it I will return to the queen of spades Talk with my chamber maid She knows that I'm not afraid to look at her She's good to me There's nothing she don't see She knows where I would rather be But that doesn't matter Your dancing child with his chinese suit He spoke to me, I stole his flute No, I wasn't that cute to him Was I? I did it though because he lied Because he took you for a ride Because time was on his side Because, I want you Darling, I want you I want you Oh, I want you I want you So bad Oh, don't joke with me now, baby I want you I want you Let's go home I want you...

I'm a wounded soldier on a downtown train to your place You've launched a secret heart with your face You don't always say what I want to hear but you move me Across the rooftops and into the deep blue sea Did we not choose each other? Are we just heroes for a day? This time I will stand by you And mine is the heart I will save, yeah I drew a hard line but I just can't see it Your colors are bleeding all over my bullshit I wanna be your star but I gotta learn to feel myself I want your love and I need your help Did we not choose each other? Are we just heroes for a day? This time I will stand by you And mine is the heart I will save Can we not judge each other? I'd rather wipe your tears away I can follow my heart till the end But I just can't choose the way Just because we live like dolphins together So many reasons to break the wave We can swim from street lamp to street lamp forever We can be kissing in the rain Can we not judge each other? I'd rather wipe your tears away I can follow my heart till the end But I just can't choose the way Listen baby, listen baby don't you do me wrong I can make my bed, you can sing your song Ain't nobody else gonna make you shine If it's the truth you seek then darlin' love you'll find I don't wanna, I don't wanna take your pain away Isn't yours to give, isn't mine to save Here's my heart, here's my hand, here's my soul Take it in, take it apart, take it easy, let it go Listen baby, listen baby don't you do me wrong I can make my bed, you can sing your song Ain't nobody else gonna make you shine If it's the truth you seek then darlin' love you'll find I don't wanna, I don't wanna take your pain away Isn't yours to give, isn't mine to save Here's my heart, here's my hand, here's my soul Take it in, take it apart, take it easy, let it go Listen baby, listen baby don't you do me wrong I can make my bed, you can sing your song Ain't nobody else gonna make you shine If it's the truth you seek then darlin' love you'll find I don't wanna, I don't wanna take your pain away Isn't yours to give, isn't mine to save Here's my heart, here's my hand, here's my soul Take it in, take it apart, take it easy, let it go
