By Your Side

        Sometimes I think about
        Places we have trekked together
        Two pairs of footprints
        Side by side next to each other
        Some strides were small and scurry
        Catching a plane, in a hurry
        Some steps were wide and spacey
        Like that starry night by the sea

        Oh baby don't you see
        I'll follow you to where you may be
        Even when I'm not by your side
        Even when an ocean separates us
        Don't feel lost
        You know you're on my mind
        and I'd rather be by your side

        Sometimes I hum quietly
        Songs you'd sing in baths or jacuzzis
        Has anyone ever told you
        You're adorable when you're off tune
        Some songs are fast and upbeat
        Like that one by MGMT
        And the melodies by Frankie
        You sing that just for me
        Just for me
        So this one's for you

        When you're drowned by lonesome silence
        When you're deprived from all happiness
        When the bed is twice as large as you need
        Remember you're just saving a spot for me
        Cause eventually
        I'll follow you to where you may be
        Even when I'm not by your side
        Even when an ocean separates us
        Don't feel lost
        You know you're on my mind
        and I'd rather be by your side
