Now You'Re Here By My Side

NOW YOU’RE HERE BY MY SIDE When I think back, on hollow days, and all those gloomy nights- In the darkness- searching for the light Empty faces, were all I beheld with these hungry eyes love has been kind-now you’re here by my side In a desert, of people so thirsty and unsatisfied you have quenched me- now you’re here by my side Now you’re with me, My solitude is over- no more silent nights Love has been kind-now you’re here by my side Chorus Now, the time stands still… The sun burns hot- on the horizon… You have been-the answer to all my prayers When I think back, on hollow days, and all those gloomy nights- In the darkness- searching for the light Now you’re with me, My solitude is over- no more silent nights Love has been kind-now you’re here by my side Chorus Now, the time stands still… The sun burns hot- on the horizon… You have been-the answer to all my prayers Repeat chorus Finale Love has been kind-now you’re here by my side Love has been kind-now you’re here by my side John Derek Hamilton June 25,2018

Hi, yes I knew it was done previously, but not sure who it was...

Thanks SO, I checked out the song Dizzy you mentioned, did you know it was from the sixties? Tommy Roe did it first. I couldn't see any similarities with my song but any comparison to any song on the radio is a compliment, thanks again!
