By My Side
The moon is bright tonight
I see it shining down on the surface of the reservoir
I don't know where you are
But the last time I was here, you were by my side

On that night
It was December, don't you remember?
You were by my side on that night
When I told you I was ready
Ready to go on

But I don't know where to go
You can't help me find my way
I am better off without you
But it won't be quite the same

Here by my side
Now you're not here by my side

Our hopes were high that night
Your eyes were a time machine, crystalline and golden
When you said "hold it,"
Then something changed, how I wish you were by my side
On that night
It was December, don't you remember?
You were by my side on that night
When I told you I was ready
Ready to go on

But I don't know where to go
You can't help me find my way
I am better off without you
But it won't be quite the same

Here by my side
Now you're not here by my side

Well, let me know
Is that alright?
You could stay just one more hour
We could watch the sun rise
And even if I never make you change your mind
At least you were kind, you were kind
When you were by my side

On that night
It was December, don't you remember?
You were by my side on that night
When I told you I was ready
Ready to go on
But I don't know where to go
You can't help me find my way
I am better off without you
But it won't be quite the same

Here by my side
Now you're not here by my side

By my side on that night
By my side on that night
I remember on that cold December night
