Always On Your Side
Sheryl Crow
My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind
'Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called you found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always on your side
Well everything was easy then
So sweet and innocent
But your demons and your angels reappeared
Leaving all the traces of the man you thought you'd be
Leaving me with no place left to go from here
Leaving me so many questions all these years
Chorus:
But is there someplace far away
Some place where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder
All alone eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No
It isn't how it's really meant to be
Well they say that love is in the air
But never is it clear how to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all I'm always on your side
Repeat chorus
Well they say that love is in the air
Never is it clear how to pull it close and make it stay
If butterflies are free to fly why do they fly away?
Leaving me to carry on and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wondering through this life?
When you know that I was always on your side.
