By My Side

I’ve always traveled this lost road ahead,
And I have no map to be my guide.
But I guess that’s okay,
As long as you’re there, walking by my side.

When you’re with me,
I see the light.
As long as you fight by my side,
Every day is bright.

You make me strong,
You make me brave.
You are the story,
That I crave.

You’ll never know,
How much I’ll cry,
When that time comes,
To say goodbye.

You gave me purpose,
I know that’s true.
You showed me love,
And pulled me through.

I now know how,
To be brave,
And that's because,
You showed me the way.

You’ve always traveled this lost road ahead,
And you have no map to be your guide.
But you know that’s okay,
As long as I’m on your mind, walking by your side.
