I passed by silent tigers
The ailing ape
The forgotten llama
The penguin face down in the water
I retreat into the nocturama
When will I ever be your husband?
When will you ever be my bride?
When will you take me from this place
With hope and hopelessness collide?
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
Again and again
Baby I'm not that strong
I got a chain around my ankle
And it's dragging me down
Oh nothing moves behind the glass
Deep inside this artificial night
The tiny eyes blink from the darkness
Saying everything will be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
But again and again
Baby I'm not that tough
When night falls round here
It's never not enough
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
To be by your side
Well it will be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
To be by your side
To be by your side
