Lyrics Queensryche – Beside You
Text:
Take your children down to the water wash their heads and sing .. holy holy
Last night I dreamed you were standing there, strong and tall beside me.
All my life … behind me.
You gently took me by my hand and led me to where
In my dreams I’ve been an island …
where I’m all alone, and I’ve built these walls stone by stone.
I want to leave but I don’t know where to go.
I’ve tried the best I can, but it’s hard to be a man and feel the way you feel.
I’m different on the inside. I’ve tried to give to you what you need to get you through.
I’ll always be … beside you.
The day you were born I held you … small and helpless crying, your life and mine entwining.
As I looked into your eyes I saw myself in an overview, reaching out to you from this island in the sea.
I don’t want to be an island.
I’ve tried the best I can, but it’s hard to be a man and feel the way you feel.
I’m different on the inside.
I’ve tried to give to you what you need to get you through.
I’ll always be … beside you.
