Lyrics Beside You - Queensrÿche

Beside You

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
