Side by Side
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Two canvas shoes beneath the awning
Waiting there like it's the morning
I could pick yours out half blind
You leave your mark on everything, in kind

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the sky to open
I just need this door to open
And find you standing there, unbroken

[Chorus]
Alaia, you're the one I choose
Not the weather, not the view
Just the fact you're always near
Alaia, that's the thing I hold most dear

[Verse 2]
Rain comes down and blurs the street
Still I'd know the shape of your feet
You never asked to be my proof
But you are, plain and simple, that's the truth

[Chorus]
Alaia, you're the one I choose
Not the weather, not the view
Just the fact you're always near
Alaia, that's the thing I hold most dear

[Bridge]
No need to shout it from a rooftop
Love like this don't ever stop
It just sits there, patient, sure
Steady as a closed front door

[Chorus]
Alaia, you're the one I choose
Not the weather, not the view
Just the fact you're always near
Alaia, that's the thing I hold most dear

[Outro]
Two shoes waiting, side by side
That's you and me, that's how we bide
