Ben Harper Lyrics

"By My Side" lyrics


Words and music by Ben Harper

Don't you get ahead of me and I won't leave you behind.
If you get unhappy want to 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 heart,
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.
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.
