The Girl That Stood Beside Me
Whose face did I see beside me
When I looked into
The mirror yesterday
Whose eyes opened wide
And who has tried
To keep my spirits high
Through yesterday
And tears whenever I cry
Who becomes my wife
And fears the day I die
Who now knows my thoughts
And every word I say
She's the girl who stood beside me
When I looked into the mirror yesterday
Who then gave her hand to me
When I was trembling in the dark
Just yesterday
Who then showed me all
The nights and all the sights
And all the lights, just yesterday
And who now makes my bed
Who now lies beside me
Who now holds my head
Who knows all my thoughts
And every word I say
She's the girl who stood beside me
When I looked into the mirror yesterday
Whose voice did I hear
When bells where ringing
Silent birds that started
Singing yesterday
Who then said, come sit beside me
Oh, my darling, don't deny me
Yesterday.
And who now makes my bed
Who now lies beside me
When I hold my head
Who knows all my thoughts
And every word I say
She's the girl who stood beside me
When I looked into the mirror yesterday
Yes, the girl who stood beside me
As I looked into the mirror yesterday
