On Your Side
Run From Cover Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So much that I'm wanting to say, but all my words just get in the way, when wanting eyes look deep into mine, the darkness fades it all starts to shine*

I know time is passing by, I'm coming around, I'm coming around
Please know that I am on your side, I won't let you down, I won't let you down

All the places we've never been, all your defenses are giving
When your arms hold me tight, I am right where I wanna be
I know time is passing by, I'm coming around, I'm coming around




Please know that I am on your side, I won't let you down, I won't let you down
