To Be By Your Side

Across the oceans
Across the seas
Over forests of blackened trees
Through valleys so still we dare not breathe
To be by your side

Over the shifting desert plains
Across mountains all in flames
Through howling winds and driving rains
To be by your side

Every mile and every year for every one a little tear
I cannot explain this, Dear
I will not even try.

Into the night as the stars collide
Across the borders that divide forests of stone standing petrified
To be by your side

Every mile and every year
For every one a single tear
I cannot explain this, Dear
I will not even try

For I know one thing
Love comes on a wing.
For tonight I will be by your side
But tomorrow I will fly.

From the deepest ocean
To the highest peak,
Through the frontiers of your sleep
Into the valley where we dare not speak
To be by your side.

Across the endless wilderness where all the beasts bow down their heads.
Darling I will never rest till I am by your side.

Every mile and every year
Time and Distance disappear I cannot explain this, Dear
No, I will not even try.

For I know one thing
Love comes on a wing and tonight
I will be by your side.
But tomorrow I will fly away
Love rises with the day and tonight
I may be by your side
But tomorrow I will fly
Tomorrow I will fly
Tomorrow I will fly.
