By your side Lyrics

If I'd leave now I'd always look back

I never meant to make you suffer, I can promise you that

I hope you know that you are one of a kind

I only wish you wouldn't hide from me what's on your mind

And even when I start to talk I don't know what to say

Afraid to look you in the eye, you'd only look away

I've never told you how you make me feel

You are the only scar I have that I don't want to heal

And if you knew that you could count on me to come when you call

Then maybe all those long nights wouldn't seem that long at all

And if you knew that you could trust me then maybe you'd have tried

And even if I cannot save you I can stay by your side

If I turn back the clocks then my life will be better

Throw rocks at the clouds just to clear up the weather

If I stay off the ground I'll turn into a bird

I'm screaming in my head and I hope I'll be heard

If I do one more pushup I know I'll be pretty

If I'll tell you the truth I'll deserve all your pity

If I read one more book then I know I'll be clever

If I hold your hand tight then you'll stay here forever

If I turn off the lights then my problems are gone

And I'll turn to the people that I counted on

Hold your hand to the sun and the world will turn black

If I told you I loved you…

Then you'd love me back

And if you knew that you could count on me to come when you call

Then maybe all those long nights wouldn't seem that long at all

And if you knew that you could trust me then maybe you'd have tried

And even if I cannot save you I can stay by your side
