Not being one to let a competition with free entry slip by, I've been working on my submission for PG Music's XTRA Style PAK 3 Contest for a little while now. When I started putting words and music together, I ended up finding myself in "Tin Pan Alley" mode so I went along with the flow. This is where it took me...


  • I Like Walking Beside You

Lyrics

I like walking beside you
Did you know
You’re the get up and go
That begins my every day?

Oh I like walking beside you
As if we’re sailing the seas
With life as our breeze
We travel through come what may

And when the day spins upside down
And smile swings to frown
You always seem to find a happy song
We can sing and then thing’s are okay

Oh I like walking beside you
This journey’s the best
I know I’ve been blessed
Travelling with you day by day

[Instrumental]

And when the day spins upside down
And smile swings to frown
You always seem to find a happy song
We can sing and then thing’s are okay

Oh I like walking beside you
This journey’s the best
I know I’ve been blessed
Travelling with you day by day

On this enjoyable quest
It’s a journey with zest
Travelling with you day by day
Travelling with you day by day
