Beside the One You Love 


[From William Pilong]




(intro) Eb  Bb  Eb  Bb 


       Dm                        C# 
You're helpless, entranced by the magical 

Dm                        C# 
touch of her skin against yours, adrift 

     Eb       Bb       Ab 
what else is there but this? 

   Eb       Bb       Eb     Bb 
It feels so sweet to fall asleep 

  Eb   Bb  Eb      Bb 
beside the one you love 


  Dm                         C# 
Remember this fireside, this quiet room, 

Dm                     C# 
embers flickering their last, like ghosts 

    Eb        Bb        Ab 
and still she holds you close 

    Eb         Bb       Eb    Bb 
Who else could know such afterglow 

Eb   Bb   Eb      Bb 
beside the one you love 


Eb                Bb 
Beside the one you love 


Dm                      C# 
Someday the memory will come again 

   Dm                C# 
as vivid as sensation now, and then 

        Eb     Bb        Ab 
there'll be no 'why' or 'when'... 

    Eb        Bb        Eb        Bb 
Who else could do these things to you 

  Eb   Bb  Eb      Bb 
beside the one you love? 


Eb                Bb 
Beside the one you love 

Eb                       Ebm      Bb 
Beside the one, beside the one you love 


   Eb       Bb       Eb     Bb 
It feels so sweet to fall asleep 

  Eb   Bb  Eb      Bb 
beside the one you love
