BY YOUR SIDE
(words & music by A. Lukas)
It´s the day before Christmas
I´m watching you smile by my side
You´re busy preparing
I´m busy trying to hide ´cause soon the tide
will come in and float everything to the shore
We spend hours and hours
Sometimes not saying a word and it´s alright
So I watch you in silence
By your side I live up to all that I
ever wanted to be
By your side I can be
By your side I can see
That the turmoil in my soul has a goal
I was told –
By your side I can be
By your side I can see
That the turmoil in my soul has a goal
I was told so much in my life
All that striving for love
I´ve listened, I´ve tried
But you tell me nothing
No lectures at all and never before
have I learned more
I know where you come from
Somehow I know everything that you are
We share a strange mystery
Somehow we´re bound from a life so long ago
I can feel it, I wonder if you do so
Or tell me how come that so easily
You´ve ripped out this heart I´ve locked up carefully
before you had decided what you´d do with it in the end
Or tell me how come that somebody like me
Who knows where he stands and who knows who he is
Is willing to give it up all randomly
By your side I can be
By your side I can see
That the turmoil in my soul has a goal
I was told –
By your side I can be
By your side I can see
That the turmoil in my soul has a goal
I was told so much in my life
All that striving for love
I´ve listened, I´ve tried
But you tell me nothing
No lectures at all and never before
have I learned more
