By My Side

(album: Love & Pain - 2006)

See the situation's complicated
I done tried and waited, getting so impatient
I'm wishin I could go back in time
Wishin I could press rewind
Now even though I treated you wrong
You still held on so long
Baby, you thought about quittin but the feeling's so strong

No matter what I do, I lose
It seems like all the time I gotta prove to you
If you walk a mile in my shoes
Then you'll see that there's nothing that I won't do you
Whoa, felt this so long, feeling so strong
Feenin for it everyday (everyday)
I could never walk away
I'd make you stay…by my side
Whoa, I never knew love would do me this way
How'd it ever come to this (come to this)
So what I gotta do to prove my love to you, girl

Feel like I'm goin crazy, baby
Need your love to save me
But it still feels like I'm wastin my time
Tell me what's on your mind, oh yes
Now, baby, you just need to stay
I'm hopin that you never leave
I can't help but take this bait
Cause I know you're the only one for me

And no matter what I do, I lose
It seems like all the time I gotta prove to you
If you walk a mile in my shoes
Then you'll see that there's nothing that I won't do for you
Whoa, felt this so long, feeling so strong
Feenin for it everyday
I could never walk away
I'd make you stay…by my side
Whoa, I never knew love would do me this way
How'd it ever come to this
So what I gotta do to prove my love to you, girl

Damn, I wish we never had these feelings
Yeah, I know that both our hearts need healing
Fighting, waiting, hoping, patient
Call you up and tell you, things I never told you
Pleading for you loving, wishing I could hold you
Tell me what you're thinking, takin what you're givin
Singin what I'm living, hopin that it's the bomb

Whoa, felt this so long, feeling so strong
Feenin for it everyday (everyday)
I could never walk away
I'd make you stay…by my side
Whoa, I never knew love would do me this way
How'd it ever come to this (come to this)
So what I gotta do to prove my love to you, girl

Whoa, felt this so long, feeling so strong
Feenin for it everyday (everyday)
I could never walk away
I'd make you stay…by my side
Whoa, I never knew love would do me this way
How'd it ever come to this (come to this)
So what I gotta do to prove my love to you, girl
