Although it seems that we must part
You will forever be in my heart
Though I shall never think of why we
Had to start, we had to start
And though you say, now
That we are through
My love remains for only you
Because I love you
You know I need you by my side
(nstrumental)
Ummmm, mmm, mmm
Ummmm, mmm, mmm
Ummmm, mmm, mmm
Ummmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
Hmmmm, mmm, mmm
You know I love you
And I need you by my side
Befo' you leave me
Come shake my hand
I hope some day you will understand
Home much I need you
How much I loved you from the start
Right from the start
And if you ever need a friend
I shared the oathe until the end
Because I love you
Yes, and I need you by my side.
