By Your Side
ɯ÷ìSade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know me better than that
Think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you're wrong
And if only you could see into me
Oh, when you're cold
When you're on my outside, baby, and you can't get in
I will show you, you're so much better than you know
When you're lost
You're alone and you can't get back again
I'll find you, darling, and I'll bring you home
And if you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
And in no time, you'll be fine
You think I'd leave your side, baby
You know me better than that
Think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you're wrong
And if only you could see into me
Oh, when you're cold
I'll be there, hold you tight to me
Oh, when you're low
I'll be there by your side, baby
Oh, when you're cold
I'll be there, hold you tight to me
Oh, when you're low
I'll be there by your side, baby

Rod you’ll forever hit different bro, you was the last artist/concert me and my brother shared together. He passed a few days later after the show in Portsmouth. Do to an Overdose, we played Tombstone for his whole service. Every song literally makes me think of him Bro. So I just want to say thank you for all you done and much more to come.!
