John Kay - Walk Beside Me Lyrics
Words and music by John KayI recall when they would sayNo one lives for just one dayDon't save dreams that can't be soldDon't chase rainbows, just their goldTried in their way, tried it mineI won my race before my timeBut golden trophies, fancy toysDon't compare to childhood joysWalk beside me darlin' come listen to the rainAnd watch the rollin' water to ease your pain againWhen night comes down to free us, and sorrow's finally goneI long to hear your secret dreams and rock you in my armsThere lived a nation proud and freeIt tried to show us harmonyBut we stood much too close to seeTo read the hand of destinyI know a child who's only seenA sunrise on the silver screenshe never watched the birds in flightOr saw the dew by morning lightWalk beside me darlin', come hear the howlin' windHe'll be a true companion, he'll listen like a friendWhen night comes down to free us, your sorrow finally goneI long to hear your secret dreams and rock in my arms Black Leather Music, Inc.
