Testo: Simply Red. Songs Of Love. Beside You.

I followed the river, down to the stream.

That's where my dream began.

I left my worries to people who stared

And dreamed without a care

That I'd always be beside you

To watch the day and night

And we'll listen to the sunrise

And feel it's growing light...

And peace will come inside

So quiet.

Another town, a thousand cheers

(older version of song)

Been on the road one million years

Some say it has to be that way

But not for me--I want to say

That I'll always be beside you

To watch the day and night

And we'll listen to the sunrise

And feel it's growing light....

And peace will come inside...

So quiet.

Wherever we're going, I don't know


(newer version of song)

For a million years our love keeps growing

The mystery deepens, day by day

But trust my love, and hear me say

That I'll always be beside you

To watch the days and nights

And we'll listen to the sunrise

And feel it's growing light

And peace will come inside, so quiet.
