We've stayed so strong for so long
So this is why we wrote this song
A message to you from me
Bet you can appreciate
A friend in need is a friend indeed
So many changes but that's alright by me
I'll just bite my tongue and carry one
Like nothing's ever happened
Side by side

You think you've got the best of it
There's so much more
I can really taste it
Just jump right in, I know you can't swim
But I'll be there, like a prayer for a sin
Side by side

I never knew how much work could be involved
But as a friend believe in what you're told
Together side by side
Forever side by side
The better days are on their way
