By My Side
Eternal Love: Finding Solace in 'By My Side' by Ian Matthew
Lyrics
I can't explain it, you don't seem to mind
I am unable to articulate it, but you don't seem to be bothered by that.
What you feel in your heart is what I feel in mine
What you feel in your heart is reciprocated in mine.
I'm safe in your patience, I'm home when you're around
I feel secure in your patience, and I find my home when you're present.
You make me feel weightless when I hold myself down
When I'm with you, I feel light and unburdened, even when I hold myself back.
When you say you love me in the middle of the night
When you express love during the night, my transition from nightmares to peaceful sleep occurs.
I go from nightmares to sleeping alright
I experience a positive shift from troubling dreams to restful sleep.
And I know I can't ever let you walk out of my life
I acknowledge that I must never allow you to leave my life.
Need you by my side
I need you to be by my side.
If it rains, it'll pour, I've learned over time
In difficult times, challenges may intensify, but I've learned that you bring comfort and brightness.
You cleared every cloud and made my sun wanna shine
You have the ability to dispel every cloud and make my life shine brightly.
There's storms that'll come to remind me it's cold
There are challenges that come to remind me of the cold, but there's an inner fire to stay warm when I'm at home.
There's a fire inside to keep warm when I'm home
Despite difficulties, there is an internal strength to endure.
When you say you love me in the middle of the night
When you declare your love at night, my transition from nightmares to peaceful sleep recurs.
I go from nightmares to sleeping alright
I experience relief from nightmares and achieve a state of peaceful sleep.
And I know I can't ever let you walk out of my life
I realize that letting you leave my life is not an option.
Need you by my side
I require your presence by my side.
Well now everything's different, but you're still the same
Although everything has changed, you remain constant.
And the waves die down when you mention my name
The mention of my name by you has a calming effect, like waves subsiding.
It's the touch of a hand, the look in your eye
It's the physical connection and the expression in your eyes that assure me I'm not alone in this struggle.
Lets me know for now I'm not alone in this fight
Your touch and gaze provide reassurance in the midst of challenges.
When you say you love me in the middle of the night
When you affirm your love at night, the positive transformation from nightmares to peaceful sleep repeats.
I go from nightmares to sleeping alright
I undergo a positive shift from distressing dreams to tranquil sleep.
And I know I can't ever let you walk out of my life
I understand that allowing you to exit my life is not an option.
When you say you love me in the middle of the night
When you declare your love at night.
I go from nightmares to sleeping alright
I experience relief from nightmares and attain a state of peaceful sleep.
And I know I can't ever let you walk out of my life
I recognize that allowing you to leave my life is not a possibility.
Need you by my side
I need you to be by my side.
