If You Were by My Side lyrics

Yeah, yeah

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Friday nights, lonely mornings

and you're not by my side,

I sit at home and cry alone and wonder why

am I acting this way?

What is it that you do?

What makes my heart control my body chasin' you?

And why must you insist 

on playin' your games with me?

We're not the little kids we used to be.

Why do you tease me and break my heart in two?

Why can't you love me the way that I love you?

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

When we talked, you tell me you've been hurt 

by love that just won't last,

of all those guys who stold your heart 

and broke it in the past. 

Look into my eyes and hear my words, they truly say

believe me, I could never hurt you, girl, in any way.

Just put your hand in mine and give this love a try.

Forget about those boys who cheat and lie

'cause I'm the man for you.

I'm sure one day you'll see.

We'll be together, just you and me.

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

If you were by my side, girl,

whoa, whoa, whoa, 

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

If you were by my side, girl,

whoa, whoa, whoa, 

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You and me weren't meant to be,

that's all that's left to say

'cause even when you're next to me,

you're still too far away.

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

If you were by my side,

girl, the things that I would do.

I'd swim the deepest oceans just to get to you.

I'd climb the highest mountains 

if I thought that'd make you mine.

All these things I'd do for you if you were by my side.

Yeah, yeah

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
