I wrote the lyrics to this song in 2005. My favorite thing at the time was driving with my bride by my side. It is still one of my favorite things. Let me know what you think.
By My Side
Verse 1:
The sun is shining through my window. I can feel its sting on my arm.
The radio’s up, music blasting, I’m singing the words to every song.
There you are beside me, feet up hair blowing in the wind
We’re racing down the interstate ready to see what’s hiding around the bend.
Chorus:
It’s a good day, riding with my baby
Petal to the floor and the road flying by
There is no other place that I’d rather be heading
Than down this road with my baby by my side.
Verse 2:
Out here on this road there is nothing that can stop us
Nothing in our way blocking our path
It’s just you and me out here with our freedom
Driving hand in hand hoping the daylight will last
Chorus:
It’s a good day, riding with my baby
Petal to the floor and the road flying by
There is no other place that I’d rather be heading
Than down this road with my baby by my side.
Bridge:
Though the day is getting late, we just keep on driving
Running as fast as we can, so happy to be alive
Chorus:
It’s a good day, riding with my baby
Petal to the floor and the road flying by
There is no other place that I’d rather be heading
Than down this road with my baby by my side.
