Lyrics
The day's luxurious as a sandstorm
With sprays of debris in the night
When you are with me in the day
I feel strangled and hollow by night
This day is the best day I could imagine
Filled with suspense and a bit of fear
But each day that I spend with you
Is close to the last
My dear, you are my everyday fling
You fill me with great joy and sorrow
I hope that you are here on this day
When the world ends tomorrow
When the world ends tomorrow
Yeah I need you by my side (call back) when the winds fall
Yeah I need you by my side (call back) when the clouds darken
Yeah I need you by my side
When the sun is a shade of gray
Where you and I go from here
Will no longer be just a passing thought
You and I have to figure out where to go
To avoid the onslaught
Of fear and crime and petty theft
And worse I fear, something vile
I feel you by my side as we walk
Endless destination after endless mile
We can't lose sight we're all a part
of this human race
Every one of us has a desire to
Survive but only for this day
I need you by my side (call back) when the winds fall
Yeah I need you by my side (call back) when the clouds darken
Yeah I need you by my side
When the sun is a shade of gray
If only one more time (call back) when we were hopeful
You and me in this fantasy life (call back) when we were happy
Forever in this mess
The test of love and the test of survival
Are one in the same
Don't forget where we came from
And let's forget who's to blame
