on the side of me.

For the ‘you’ whose always ‘on the side of me’
Corrine May – ON THE SIDE OF ME

I’m not the easiest person to love
I’m often the one who lets things go unresolved

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me

I’m not too proud of some things
I’ve done in my life
The skeletons in my closet
Are too big for me to hide

Yet you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Blessed Charity
You’re on the side of me
on the side of me

‘Cause everyone needs a friend to hold
when it’s cold outside
and there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared
but you

I’m not the easiest person to love
But you, you’ve opened your heart to show me what I’m worth

‘Cause you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
What a mystery
You’re on the side of me
on the side of me

‘Cause everyone needs a friend to hold
when it’s cold outside
and there’s no place to go
Everyone needs a friend to hold
all alone I cried
there was no place to go

I remember when nobody cared
I remember when nobody cared
Nobody cared
But you
Yeah you choose to be
on the side of me
on the side of me
Authentic. Spiritual. Brilliant. Extraordinary. Insightful. Gifted.

Beautiful words…. Indeed it is the ability to accept you for who you are and not for what they hope you to be. It is about knowing the secret details about you and still loves you anyway. It’s the ability to listen to you when you’re talking and to celebrate with you when you are happy and comfort you in your not so jolly-days. It’s the ability to laugh with you, cry with you and feel for you when you just don’t feel like 'feeling'. It is for these reasons that you realize you are loved.
