Right By My Side

I see her face, every time I close my eyes.
As beautiful as the white lace, hushing my cries.
I had my world in my hands, but I lost it all.
Misery has risen and stands, waiting for my fall.
All of sorrows demands, drown out every call.
Where was she, when I needed love.
But now that we are through, That's all I dream of.
Right by my side, was where she was found.
Whenever I cried, she would never let me hit the ground.
We made a mistake, so many regrets.
We need eachother for God's sake, hopefully he lets...
I start to drown, yet I see her grab me.
My life will spiral down, is she my destiny?
She brightens up my frown, and launches me into fantasy.
Life throws me hell, but she was always there.
She was there to tell, she would even brush my hair.
I've gone so blind, to see what I've missed.
If I was ever left behind, she made it better when we kissed.
Right by my side, all of this time.
I feel like I died, after all the accusing rhyme.
She was my best friend, she would wipe away tears.
I'll love her until the end, she fought away my fears.
Right by my side, she will always stay.
Every night I've cried, ever since she went away.
