Lyrics
Alongside
I dream I had the big old tree
from my old backyard
the one we used to climb upon
high so to see the stars
Next to you, alongside
it's just me and you
Those days were too good to be true
Summer days alongside you
Summer days just right by, you
The seasons fade
traverse and change
invariably, I stay the same
and one day
when I'm old and grey
I'll find that piece
that fell away
Oh summer days the soft suns rays
and all I see is you
Buried beneath
you'll never peak
you'd never know
I lost, I bereaved
I packed up,
and left my old cobbled street
Oh Summer days, the waters glaze
and all I see is you
And now I stand, defeat
my big old tree
was almost as hollow
as me
Summer days alongside you
Next to you, alongside
it's just me and you
those days were too good to be true
with you.
