Beside Me

Before the wind before the rain, I recall something there
Before the turn of the century
Before I changed my mind to love, and give up everything
I do recall someone standing there
You were my friend (highlight of the day)
Pushing your way in (forsaking everything)
Sharing your fears (so fearlessly)
Beside me
I try to tell myself to change, to let it all inside
Because I will not let it go
So frightened of the storm before that I must turn away
I knew a million times before
You were my friend (highlight of the day)
Pushing your way in (forsaking everything)
Sharing your fears (so fearlessly)
Beside me
Everyone surrounding me was screaming to let it all inside
It’s better just to hide
But isn’t it funny how when you finally lose the will to win
I see you through my own eyes
