By My Side

Oh how we carry with us, traumas of the past Faithful to moulds in which we're cast. Hand me down dysfunction, recidivist desire watch me Throw another lover on the fire. There's a great white elephant, hidden in the room Maybe you didn't see him in the gloom. You say that I am empty, emotionally devoid Blame it on whatever, happened to the boy. And maybe it's better we don't talk about it all Maybe it's better we don't talk at all but Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side. Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side. The boy in the photograph made me want to cry When I saw the emotion in his eyes. Is it any wonder I'm struggling to cope? Is it any wonder we're giving up hope? And maybe it's better we don't talk about it all Maybe it's better we don't talk at all but Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side. Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side. Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side. Don't you want to be by my side? I only want to be by your side.
