Text: Chris De Burgh. By My Side.
It's alright, I'm not lost
I've got a reading on the Southern Cross
And I've been listening to the radio
For signs of new life
Some people find the game too tough
And there are those who've simply had enough
But I'm still here and I'm not giving up
I'm going the distance
Whatever it takes I have to fight
To build a better world and make it right
And when I am alone, it's late at night
I reach out and you're right here by my side
When everything has gone
You help me carry on
You lift me up, you make me strong
You give love to see me through
Ooh, ooh, ooh, what would I do
Without you by my side, by my side
And out here on the flight
I'm on a wing and a prayer tonight
The moon is showing me the way to go
I'm flying forever
I've got what it takes to win the fight
And build a better world and make it right
But when I am alone, it's late at night
I reach out and you're here by my side
When everything has gone
You help me carry on
You lift me up, you make me strong
You give love to see me through
Ooh, ooh, ooh, what would I do
Without you by my side
Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
Always you're in my world
Always I think what would I do
Without you, without you by my side
Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
Always you're in my world
Always I think what would I do
Without you, without you by my side
Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
I've got a reading on the Southern Cross
And I've been listening to the radio
For signs of new life
Some people find the game too tough
And there are those who've simply had enough
But I'm still here and I'm not giving up
I'm going the distance
Whatever it takes I have to fight
To build a better world and make it right
And when I am alone, it's late at night
I reach out and you're right here by my side
When everything has gone
You help me carry on
You lift me up, you make me strong
You give love to see me through
Ooh, ooh, ooh, what would I do
Without you by my side, by my side
And out here on the flight
I'm on a wing and a prayer tonight
The moon is showing me the way to go
I'm flying forever
I've got what it takes to win the fight
And build a better world and make it right

Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
Always you're in my world
Always I think what would I do
Without you, without you by my side
Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
Always you're in my world
Always I think what would I do
Without you, without you by my side
Always you're in my heart
Always by my side
Always you're in my life
Always right here
