At a diner booth I sit down to eat

Glance across the table to an empty seat

Even after all these years



I feel your hand fall on my leg

Your head hits my shoulder and I hear you say

Amen, God led us here



And there's no place I'd rather be

Me next to you, you next to me



Side by side, on the sidewalk, in the pew

Side by side, your love will always see me through

Until our dying day, ?til our souls fly away

To that sweet bye and bye, side by side



Every night we fall into the same routine

You wash the dishes and I dry them clean

With you, I can be found



At the movies or at the beach

Or hand in hand driving down the street

The music up, the windows down



There's no place I'd rather be

Me next to you, you next to me



Side by side, on the sidewalk, in the pew

Side by side, your love will always see me through

Until our dying day, ?til our souls fly away

To that sweet bye and bye, side by side



Every time that we're apart

I hope you know that in my heart we're always



Side by side, on the sidewalk, in the pew

Side by side, your love will always see me through

Until our dying day, ?til our souls fly away

To that sweet bye and bye

Hand in hand, together we will fly side by side
