Beside You Now
V.1
I know where I'm supposed to be
Beside you now, but they won't let me
They're taking you away
So here I lay,
Eventually I'll waste away and they'll come get me
To place me next to you
Right next to...
Chorus
Beautiful, letting go of all we've held on to

Chorus 2

(I’ve no regrets of yesterday, though these tears are falling)

(I will run to you, please still remember)
Beautiful, letting go of all you know is true
(Our love will linger on, because it’s deeper than the ocean)
Why can't I let you go?
