Beside You

Lyrics

[Intro] Hey its Luke and I love you Emerson baby, I wrote this for you [Verse 1] We found our way through lecture halls With coffee cooling by the wall You laughed when I forgot my notes And somehow made the long day close I know the path you take at four The little bookstore by the door You turn and tuck your hair behind And leave the whole room on my mind [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a perfect plan Just your fingers in my hand [Chorus] Emerson, you make this place feel like home Even in a crowded room, I know where I belong From morning classes to the last bus running late I would choose you every day, in every year we make Emerson, if you ask me where my heart has been It has been beside you, waiting to begin [Verse 2] We share the corner of the lawn Talking until the daylight's gone Your sweater hanging from my chair Still carries traces of you there And when the semester gets too loud You pull me gently from the crowd One quiet look, and I can breathe You give me more than you believe [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a perfect plan Just your fingers in my hand [Chorus] Emerson, you make this place feel like home Even in a crowded room, I know where I belong From morning classes to the last bus running late I would choose you every day, in every year we make Emerson, if you ask me where my heart has been It has been beside you, waiting to begin [Bridge] When these halls become a memory And graduation sets us free I'll still find you, wherever we go With the same sweet certainty I know [Final Chorus] Emerson, you make this place feel like home And wherever life may lead, I won't let you walk alone From our first hello to all the days ahead I'll keep every promise that my heart has said Emerson, you are the best part of my view Luke loves you, baby, and he'll keep choosing you [Outro] Emerson, this one is yours Love, Luke
