Side by Side
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
Two pairs of shoes out on the step
Caked in mud from the same old road
I didn't plan to love you this much
But look how far this walking grows

[Pre-chorus]
We tracked the dirt in from the same place
No need to shine it, no need to hide
I've stopped pretending I don't need you close

[Chorus]
Valentina, you're the one I choose
Every plain and unglamorous day
Nothing fancy in the way I love you
Just steady, and here, and staying that way

[Verse 2]
You kick your shoes off first, always
Leave them leaning right next to mine
I used to walk paths on my own
Now they all seem to end where you are

[Pre-chorus]
We tracked the dirt in from the same place
No need to shine it, no need to hide
I've stopped pretending I don't need you close

[Chorus]
Valentina, you're the one I choose
Every plain and unglamorous day
Nothing fancy in the way I love you
Just steady, and here, and staying that way

[Bridge]
Some days we run, some days we're slow
Either way I want you next to me
Doesn't matter where this road decides to go
Long as it's you that I keep company

[Chorus]
Valentina, you're the one I choose
Every plain and unglamorous day
Nothing fancy in the way I love you
Just steady, and here, and staying that way

[Outro]
Two pairs of shoes, still side by side
That's the whole truth, that's all I need
