       E            Bm                                E
 Am I real, do the words I speak before you make you feel
           Bm                             A/E
 That the love I left for you will see no ending
              Am/E                               E
 Well, if you look into my eyes then you should know
               Bm                                 E
 That there is nothing here to doubt, nothing to fear
             Bm                                       A/E
 And you can lay your questions down 'cause if you'll hold me
        Am/E
 We can fade into the night and you'll know...

Chorus
G     Em         Bm
 The world could die

 And everything may lie
(D/F#) Em          D-C, D,
 Still you shan't cry
G        Em       Bm
 'Cause time may pass
      C                 G
 But longer that it'll last
      (D/F#.) Em       D
 I'll be      by your side.

Repeat Intro's last 2 lines

 Take my hand and gently close your eyes so you could understand
 That there's no greater love tonight than what I've for you
 Well, if you feel the same way for me then let go
 We can journey to a garden no one knows
 Life is short, my darling, tell me that you love me
 So we can fade into the night and you'll know...

Repeat Chorus

 Forever by your side

 I want you to know...

 And everything won't last, I'll be by your side
    C        D    G-Em-Bm
 Forever by your side
    C             G-Em-D
 Forever by your side
     C   D   
 So you won't cry.
