Besides You
*** 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 i couldn¡¯t see,but where i¡¯ve always been ... an island.
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.
