Stand by your Side

The children are off to sleep

Come here my darling, sit with me

We’ll talk over a cup of tea

Hold me

I’ll sit on your lap

Cause the world can be so cold sometimes

The world can be so cold

I’ll sit on your lap

And we’ll never have to be apart

I’ll sit on your lap

And we’ll never have to be apart

No, we’ll never have to be apart again, again

Again

Close your eyes, dear

Do you recall when there was nothing here?

And how many a year it took us

A kiss on the hand

Please don’t be mean

You know I’ll stand here until it clears
