With You by My Side

(stanza)
We can live in a house on a street
With a view of the city and the world at our feet
And a garden out back stretching 90 feet wide
And with you by my side

We can buy us a dog, like a beagle
And a cat and a horse and a duck and an eagle
Or maybe I’ll just stay with me and my bride
With you by my side

(chorus)
I’ll wake up in the morning and the first thing that I’ll see
Before I brush my teeth or even have my morning coffee
Will be your smiling face as you are smiling down at me
Cos you and me
Eventually

(chorus)
When I crawl into my bed and I turn off the light
When I close my eyes and slowly slip into the night
I’ll hold on to the sound of you breathing by my side
Cos you and me
Eventually

(stanza)
Or we could travel all over the world
Through deserts and treetops, through the sky up above
We’ll walk down the beach as it fades from the light
With you by my side

Italy with its towers precarious
The walls up in China, or the bright lights of Paris
And learn how the people in Rome say goodnight
With you by my side

(chorus)
I’ll wake up in the morning and the first thing that I’ll see
Before I brush my teeth or even have my morning coffee
Will be your smiling face as you are smiling down at me
Cos you and me
Eventually

(chorus)
When I crawl into my bed and I turn off the light
When I close my eyes and slowly slip into the night
I’ll hold on to the sound of you breathing by my side
Cos you and me
Eventually
