For Jamie- Things aren't looking bright... and I may not see you for another five years... but I'm still on your side. You did something stupid, you regret it, I know you do. And I'm not leaving your side... even if you can't see it... I'm standing by you.

I'm On Your Side

We used to be closer than close.

We were like best friends.

You were a friend and a cousin

Somebody I could always count on.

You were there when things got bad.

And you said you'd always be there for me.

Two years I had gone

Without seeing your smiling face.

I got the news a few weeks ago

About what you did

And where you were.

You aren't stuck in a place where anybody would want to be.

But it's a choice you made.

And now you're going with the consequences

Of your worser judgement.

And now I'm getting to adjust with the fact

That your felony

Might just make it become

That I won't see you again

For five years to come.

But somehow I find myself

Starting to say

That I'm still on your side.

Even though you can't see it

I'm always

Standing on your side.

Nobody can bend or break me.

Nor can they ever shake it.

I'm standing on your side

For now and forever.

No matter what is to happen

I'm on your side.

I'm always standing next to you

Even though you can't see it.

I'm always supporting you

And standing side by side

With all that you do.

You could never let me down.

And you can never make me back down.

I'm on your side through this.

I'm not weak enough to be broken.

They can't make me change.

I'm on your side.
