Always on your side - Sheryl Crow and Sting

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away


But every now and then you come to mind


Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game


But when your name was called, you found a place to hide


When you knew that I was always on your side





Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent


my demons and my angels reappeared


Leavin' only traces of the man you thought I'd be


Too afraid to hear the words i always fear


leaving you with only questions all these years





Is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear


Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear


Or are you left to wander, all alone, eternally


This isn't how it's really meant to be


No it isn't how it's really meant to be





Well they say that love is in the air, but never is it clear,


How to pull it close and make it stay


Butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away


And I'm left to carry on and wonder why


Even through it all, I'm always on your side





But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear


Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear


Or are you left to wander, all alone, eternally


But this isn't how it's really meant to be


Oh it isn't how it's really meant to be





Well if they say that love is in the air, never is it clear


How to pull it close and make it stay


If butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away


Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why


Was it you that kept me wondering through this life


When you know that I was always on your side
