By Your Side Lyrics - Dis/location - Seven Mary Three

You had a basement apartment 

We spent the days in the dark there 

Everything implied and perfect 

We made up our own secret language 

With no word for goodbye 

A Remington Rand on your birthday 

Pages of games we've been playing 

Letters of lost conversations 

You never think that I'm listening 

Are you listening now? 

You're the center of the scenery 

No matter where it's taken me 

It doesn't change when I'm not there 

I've got a suitcase and ticket 

I know you can see through the patterns 

Returning and leaving but outside 

There's just so little that matters 

I can't wait to just sit still 

You invent for me a usefulness 

And I've started getting used to it 

What I miss when I'm not there 

Another hope to die love song 

You're going to get yours before to long 

If you need me look to find me 

Right here by your side 

Little black dots on paper 

Connected in your name 

I float up off the sidewalk 

See you through a window 

Remember where to find me 

You can tell me not to miss you 

From now on you won't have to 

If you need me look to find me 

Right here by your side
