I Walk Beside You

Dream Theater · Score: 20th Anniversary World Tour Live W [2006]

There's a story in your eyes

I can see the hurt behind your smile

For every sign I recognize

Another one escapes me



Let me know what plagues your mind

Let me be the one to know you best

Be the one to hold you up

When you feel like you're sinking



Tell me once again

What's beneath the pain you're feeling

Don't abandon me

Or think you can't be saved



I walk beside you

Wherever you are

Whatever it takes

No matter how far

Through all that may come

And all that may go

I walk beside you

I walk beside you



Summon up you ghosts for me

Rest your tired thoughts upon my hands

Step inside this sacred place

When all your dreams seem broken



Resonate inside this temple

Let me be the one who understands

Be the one to carry you

When you can't walk no further



Tell me once again

What's below the surface bleeding

If you've lost your way

I will take you in



I walk beside you

Wherever you are

Whatever it takes

No matter how far

Through all that may come

And all that may go

I walk beside you

I walk beside you



Oh when everything is wrong

Oh when hopelessness surrounds you

Oh the sun will rise again

The tide you swim against

Will carry you back home

So don't give up

Don't give in



I walk beside you

Wherever you are

Whatever it takes

No matter how far

Through all that may come

And all that may go

I walk beside you

I walk beside you
