Gary Louris - By Your Side Lyrics

If you had told me
That a year from now I'd be
Sitting beside you
In South Ontario
Holding your hand in mine
Watching the firelight
Dance within your eyes

You are my rainbow
And you're my pot of gold
Just hold on tightly
And as we navigate
The current and the tide
This crooked river that
Will take us through our lives

Yeah, I'll be by your side
Yeah, I'll be by your side

I walked a fine line
Between the dark and the light
But then i met you
And my forever home
Fell within my sights
A little bungalow

And you my darling wife
Yeah, I'll be by your side
Yeah, I'll be by your side

Well we've all got hopes and dreams to hold onto
They may change yet they linger there
But they only stay a dream until you dare

No future dreaming
Mere emptiness I had How life turns quickly
That's when the thunderclouds
Broke to skies of blue
And our two worlds collided
It's just me and you
And while this crooked river Takes us through our lives

Yeah, I'll be by your side
Yeah, I'll be by your side
