lyrics

“Run Beside Me"

One day it feels like yesterday
Next it feels like an eternity
But things never seemed the same
Since you’ve been gone
Since you’ve been gone

Chorus:
Will you run beside me
When the morning comes?
When you look down on me
Are you proud of the man I’ve become?

One, two, three, four, five
Memories held inside
Each one completes the puzzle
Piece by piece.
Countless times I’ve cried
With you not by my side
And still I wonder

Will you run beside me
When the morning comes?
When you look down on me
Are you proud?

’Cos you’ve fought the good fight.
You’ve won the war
Every speech motivated me
To run on…

Will you run beside me
When the morning comes?
When you look down on me
Are you proud of the man I’ve become?
