Alice Ripley - When I'm By Your Side lyrics

[DAISY & VIOLET] You are my favorite new playmate I love the fun you provide A song and a laugh Are better by half When I'm by your side Happy to be your companion Glad that I qualified I feel as grand as the canyon When I'm by your side People stop dead when they've seen us We take their staring in stride Can't fit a needle between us When I'm by your side We're an unusual duo Don't always swim with the tide But who needs a boat? I'm always afloat When I'm by your side [instrumental; DAISY and VIOLET do a dance that Buddy taught them] [DAISY & VIOLET] I like what I duo can do The combination is greater Than the sum of its parts Should we cement this arrangement? Now that it's tested and tried We're such a tight weave I don't want to leave We make a matched set A perfect duet Like eggs on a ham Like twins to Siam I'm by your side
