Van Morrison - Beside You

Little Jimmy's gone
Way out of the backstreet
Out of the window
Through the fallin' rain
Right on time
Right on time
That's why Broken Arrow
Waved his finger down the road
so dark and narrow
In the evenin'
Just before the Sunday
six bells chime
six bells chime
And all the dogs are barkin'
Way on down
the diamond studded highway
where you wander
And you roam
from your retreat and view
Way over on the railroad
Tomorrow all the tippin'
trucks will unload
Every scrapbook stuck will glue
And I'll stand beside you
Beside you child
To never never never wonder
why at all
No no no no no no no no
To never never wonder
why at all
To never never never wonder
why it's gotta be
It has to be
Way across the country
where the hillside mountain glide
The dynamo of your smile
caressed the barefoot
virgin child to wander
Past your window
with a lantern lit
You held it in the doorway
and you cast against
the pointed island breeze
Said your time was open
go well on your merry way
Past the brazen footsteps
of the silence easy
You breathe in you breathe
out you breathe
in you breathe out you breath in
you breathe out you breathe
in you breathe out
And you're high
on your high flyin' cloud
Wrapped up
in your magic shroud
as ecstasy surrounds you
This time it's found you
You turn around you turn around
you turn around you turn around
And I'm beside you
Beside you
Oh darlin'
To never never wonder
why at all
No no no no no
To never never never wonder
why at all
To never never never wonder
why it's gotta be
It has to be
And I'm beside you
Beside you
Oh child
To never never wonder
why at all
I'm beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Oh child
Little Jimmy's gone
Way out of the backstreet
Out of the window
Through the fallin' rain
Right on time
Right on time
That's why Broken Arrow
Waved his finger down the road
so dark and narrow
In the evenin'
Just before the Sunday
six bells chime
six bells chime
And all the dogs are barkin'
Way on down
the diamond studded highway
where you wander
And you roam
from your retreat and view
Way over on the railroad
Tomorrow all the tippin'
trucks will unload
Every scrapbook stuck will glue
And I'll stand beside you
Beside you child
To never never never wonder
why at all
No no no no no no no no
To never never wonder
why at all
To never never never wonder
why it's gotta be
It has to be
Way across the country
where the hillside mountain glide
The dynamo of your smile

To never never never wonder
why at all
To never never never wonder
why it's gotta be
It has to be
And I'm beside you
Beside you
Oh child
To never never wonder
why at all
I'm beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Oh child
