Don't you get ahead of me
|
and I won't leave you behind
|
if you get unhappy
|
show me a sign
|
|
there's no love like lost love
|
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 heard
|
|
and a heart
|
is not a stone
|
and 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
|
|
my care for you
|
is from the ground up to the sky
|
it's over under up above
|
down below and to the side
|
|
no use in pretending
|
no use in saving face
|
my love is never ending
|
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
|
