Beside You
Kitty Wells · Queen of Country Music [Bear Family (Germany)] [1994]
Beside you forever I'm thankful each day
That you've picked me for your own
Your love and devotion changed my life
Beside you I couldn't go on.
Beside you darling life's one happy dream
You've brought a new world to my heart
My life was empty before I met you
Beside you till death do we part.
--- Instrumental ---
Beside you proudly we'll walk down the aisle
To start a new world for us two
The love we share will grow through the years
For this happiness I'll owe to you.
Beside you darling life's one happy dream
You've brought a new world to my heart
My life was empty before I met you
Beside you till death do we part...
