Standing by the wayside, begging for a ride
I been waiting so long, a year has gone
Look at all the people, strangers every one
I've been looking so long, a year has gone

You were all I lived for, I guess my life is through
I've been living so long, a year has gone
Lonely Sunday morning, rest in peace, my love
You been sleeping so long, a year has gone

How could I ever start to tell you
The end is almost here?
The song of love is ringing in my ears
Playing loud, playing clear
The song will never change
The memory will always be so near

Standing by the wayside, begging for a ride
I been waiting so long, a year has gone
Look at all the people, strangers every one
I've been looking so long, a year has gone

If I could only share with you
Once more the fruits of yesterday
Could I forget unspoken words?
The change in colours of your way

I can still see you standing there
Clutching my hand and begging not to go
Don't hide the tears, I'm crying too
It doesn't matter too much, no

I'll always be with you by your side
Watching over you, feeling every pain
Hold your head high, think of me there
I'll still be with you once again

I'll always be with you by your side
Watching over you, feeling every pain
Hold your head high, think of me there
I'll still be with you once again

( Rossi / Parfitt )

Say you need me, say you need me
Tell me that you want my love
Say you will be mine and I am yours
You think that you're way above me
I'm telling you that I can see
All those things that you might wanna be
I am yours tonight
You be mine tonight

You keep telling me you're not having me
I'm telling you that I can see
All the things that you might wanna be
Say you need me, say you need me
Tell me that you want my love
Say will be mine and I am yours
I am yours tonight
You be mine tonight

I got a big fat Mama
With a big fat boy
Really thinks she's something else
But I love that woman
Like fish loves the water
And there is nobody else
I'm gonna tell you woman better do as you're told
If you don't, I'm gonna bringing you down
I've got a big fat Mama
And there's no one else around

I said say you need me
Come on and say you need me
I said say you need me

Say you need me
Come on and say you need me
I said say you need me

Riding on a big white butterfly
I turned my back away towards the sky
I closed my eyes to look for something
Saw myself as really nothing
Then I realized my butterfly
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my butterfly?

Riding on a long blue paper plane
Getting seasick, sorry once again
Landing strip is getting nearer
Hope the fog lifts, makes it clearer
Then I realized my paper plane
Wasn't really up there with me
We all make mistakes, forgive me
Would you like to ride my paper plane?

Riding in a three grand Deutsche car
A to B is often very far
Home is near, but such a long way
Legs and heads all feel the wrong way
Then I realized my Deutsche car
Is only there to get me somewhere
Even so I really do care
Would you like to ride my Deutsche car?

When I find myself in trouble and I need someone to lean on
I only have to call and you're right there by my side
When I can't see all the reasons why you have to be so far away
I wonder if our love is really here to stay
And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to

When you're telling me not to worry 'cos you're being there won't be long
I only live in hope that you just can't be wrong
Because I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to

And I can't help my feelings and I can't hide my love for you
And I'll always believe in all the things that you want me to
