I need you dear, you lay sleeping by my side
And I worry dear but things you say are bright and gay
And I warm to your words of encouragement
And not a soul knows what I will know

Were lovers and were honestly
Together somehow and tied with silver string
We’ll live forever and ever
And if you decide *

Downhearted, down cause we live apart
No, I can’t fake it not for one more day

If theres someplace we can go
If we can make a home
It’s up to us to cope

In you I trust in all things theres a must
And I will live again

Were lovers and were honestly
Together somehow and tied with silver string
We’ll live forever and ever
And if you decide

Were lovers and were honestly
Together somehow and tied with silver string
We’ll live forever and ever
And if you decide

Other Info:
"Another song I wrote in an open tuning, and it has a lot of nice chord voicings. Lyrically,
it's an open declaration of love for someone that I felt so good about and had to tell. I 
really love ballads, -- I even like "Four Seasons of Change" by Boyz 2 Men. I tried to write 
a traditional rock ballad, but with a country feel. Adam played a great piano track, and the
strings are kind of Phil Spector-ish. There's some Keith Richards-style country noodling 
dropped in to keep it from being a completely straight ballad." said James.
