Side by Side

As we walked side by side

I saw the wind in your hair

As it stroked your skin

I knew of your despair

Darling, why are you sad?

When I am near

Is it my fault that you shed those tears?

As we walked side by side

You took my hand

But your touch,

I couldn't feel,

So I turned my head around

To see your eyes,

They were grey, they looked through me

In a world so fey, (my dear)

Near and far, colorful but pale,

beautiful with sin, never to be seen

We're divided, we are standing on opponent sides

You complete me, you delete me

And in you I hide

As I lay by your side,

I felt your heart

Beating in line with mine

As I lay by your side – by your side, dear

I said I needed you

You just looked into my eyes,

Your voice was in disguise:

“Let us walk side by side,

I'll hold your hand,

I am here with you, (my dear)

Near and far, colorful but pale,

beautiful with sin, never to be seen

We're divided, we are standing on opponent sides

You complete me, you delete me

And in you I hide
