There's so much breaking up Folks who won't fall in love Put up shells, guard themselves, build walls And it makes me cry sometimes 'Cause people live lonely lives They don't want to try They don't want to live at all Chorus: But I'm not gonna be afraid To give up my heart that way 'Cause I need you, I need you by my side And I'm not gonna say I'm strong Out here in this world alone Cause I need you, I need you by my side And when you find someone Someone you really love It makes life easier to bear But some folks live on their own Shut themselves in at home They never find out What love's all about 'Cause they're scared. Repeat Chorus Tag: 'Cause I need you I need you by my side.
