Beside You (Re-Recorded Version) - Van Morrison

Little Jimmy's gone

Way out of the backstreet

Out of the window

Through the fallin' rain

Right on time

Right on time

That's why Broken Arrow

Waved his finger down the road so dark and narrow

In the evenin'

Just before the Sunday six-bells chime, six-bells chime

And all the dogs are barkin'

Way on down the diamond-studded highway where you wander

And you roam from your retreat and view

Way over on the railroad

Tomorrow all the tippin' trucks will unload

Every scrapbook stuck will glue

And I'll stand beside you

Beside you child

To never never never wonder why at all

No no no no no no no no

To never never wonder why at all

To never never never wonder why it's gotta be

It has to be

Way across the country where the hillside mountain glide

The dynamo of your smile caressed the barefoot virgin child to wander

Past your window with a lantern lit

You held it in the doorway and you cast against the pointed island breeze

Said your time was open, go well on your merry way

Past the brazen footsteps of the silence easy

You breathe in you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out you breath in

you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out

And you're high on your high-flyin' cloud

Wrapped up in your magic shroud as ecstasy surrounds you

This time it's found you

You turn around you turn around you turn around you turn around

And I'm beside you

Beside you

Oh darlin'

To never never wonder why at all

No no no no no

To never never never wonder why at all

To never never never wonder why it's gotta be

It has to be

And I'm beside you

Beside you

Oh child

To never never wonder why at all

I'm beside you

Beside you

Beside you

Beside you

Oh child
