Verse 1:
She did not run away when it started to rain
She did not turn away when she saw my stains
With healing hands she opened the door
She showed me how to cross the floor
Every time I want to hide steadfast she stands by my side
Woman by my side, woman by my side
Verse 2:
As the grain forms the pearl deep inside
As her touch remedied all of my pride
With her big green eyes she understand my fears
With gentleness she draws me near
Every time I need to subside she walks with me stride by stride
Woman by my side, woman by my side
Chorus:
We embrace these merciless days
Faithful and grateful we walk in a beautiful way
Even as the river runs dry, breath will be our guide
I will walk this forlorn road with my woman by my side
Woman by my side
Bridge:
As the grandfather ticks relentlessly
We will lay these bricks endlessly
Brick by brick we will build this space
