Side by side

Side by side I cleared the weeds and I took my plow, got it ready to go Got the tubers and my seeds; yeah, everything is set to sow Such a fertile soil to plant the garden of your wildest dreams What is it fights you? What inner demon is tearing you at the seams? Know this and cling to it through each and every battle in your mind I am waiting for you, and I won’t go forward, no I won’t leave you behind Side by side we will see those tomorrows Side by side we can bury those sorrows Together as one nothing can stand a chance Nothing can ever end this burning romance Side by side let us walk into endless new sunrises Side by side unwrap each of life’s daily surprises As I look in your eyes, as we ready ourselves for sleep I’ll count my blessings being with you instead of sheep Side by side we will wake, animals around us, birds singing Side by side thankful for the two us and our new beginning I love you!
