Mark Seymour & The Undertow - Beside You lyrics

Here's to your garden Here's to your kids I heard you were in the neighbourhood I've been a long time on the skids And baby I'm beside you You run from the river when it long ran over you This is for you standing up to a bone chilling wind This is for the failures you collected from my sins And this is for your lonesome tears I never dried This is for your hanging in in the hope that it never dies And baby I'm beside you You run from the river when it long ran over you – yeah This is for you waiting up though the call never came For the milk of human kindnesses you collected from our dream And this is for your lonesome tears I never dried This is for your hanging in in the hope that it never dies And baby I'm beside you You run from the river when it long ran over you And now I'm running here beside you And now I'm running here beside you This is for the traveller on a blinding desert road Good fortune smile upon you and may love be your only load And this is for the only one who could quell my burning rage To anyone who's been a broken man and anyone seen better days Baby I'm beside you And now I'm running here beside you (baby I'm) And now I'm running here beside you (beside you) And now I'm running here beside you (baby I'm) And now I'm running here beside you (beside you)
