I'm On Your Side |
Out on the street you don’t feel safe |
In a crowded plaza you’re alone |
In this life you love and you hate sometimes |
A prisoner of glass and stone |
You reach for smells and sounds |
That hold you and earth you down |
Your heart’s too fast and breaking inside |
Your head spins you vicious little lies |
Yeah, but I’m on your side |
Yeah, I’m on your side |
Black dogs and blues move on |
You’ll head away for oceans once more |
Where nothing is lost or is won |
We lighten our load for the shore |
The hope I sing rings true |
Because in this world there is you |
Like the ebb and the flow of the tide |
You’ll take the blues in your stride |
Yeah, and I’m on your side |
Yeah, I’m on your side |
I see a warrior who’s walking in light |
I see poetry and songs sung true |
I see courage in the darkest of your nights |
I see armour of love draped around you |
I saw you almost not go |
I saw you breathe deeply and know |
Black dogs whisper lies |
You, you are ancient and wise |
Yeah, and I’m on your side |
Yeah, I’m on your side |
