By My Side
Loser Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wrote you a thousand letters all inside my head
I'd tell you how I'm sorry for all I didn't said
We crashed into one another everything we had
I want you to know that I have only one regret
I'd take back the times I hurt you

Every day you're gone is one too long
'Cause I need you here by my side
And I don't want to be alone, can you come home
'Cause I need you here by my side (by my side)

A photo is all that I have, memories in my mind
So close I can almost feel you, my favourite place in time
How I wish that I could find you

Every day you're gone is one too long
'Cause I need you here by my side
And I don't want to be alone, can you come home
'Cause I need you here by my side

How I wish that I could find you

Every day you're gone is one too long
'Cause I need you here by my side




And I don't want to be alone, can you come home
'Cause I need you here by my side

This is such a good song. I can't believe how many amazing songs Joe Grah has written throughout his career. Jibe, Loser and South Of Earth all have tons of insanely good songs

Anthony Medeiros

I remember these guys. I saw them live back in 2004 or 2005 when they and Theory of a Deadman opened for Staind. I have their Demo CD, it's even autographed. It was a pretty cool band, I remember talking to their manager and he talked about times when he worked with Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie.

Great band. Wish their album would have been given a proper release, it’s great stuff.
