Michael Kiwanuka - I Need You By My Side Lyrics

👍😉

Far away, I've been so long away
I get a little lost, hey, but I've found my way
See I've been, wondering why, I keep losing, hey
How I need you, yes I need you by my side
Holding on, I'm barely holding on
When I hear your voice, oh, I can keep on
See I've been, healing this long, all on my on
How I need you, yes I need you by my side
Oh, no there's times that I'm not sure, but I need it
Uh, you're forever on my mind, don't know
Seen me on my own, seen me try
Yes, need you by my side, all the time
Heal the day, yes I can see the day
Oh, see how you made me strong, now I sing my song
See I've been, falling away, for a too long way
How I need you, yes I need you by my side
How I need you, yes I need you by my side

Soul reaching, heart melting, weak in the knees music. Simply glorious!!!

I routinely convert Youtube videos to audio and download them. I 'Shazamed' this guy on Radio 2 today and I have listened to and downloaded thirteen of his tracks this evening... every single thing I have listened to has been glorious, bone melting ear candy. I am going to track down and actually purchase this man's material - I don't need to, I want to. Simply superb. It is all so damned beautiful, how is he doing this??

"Mob Wives" introduced me to this guy (Lol) and "Run like the Breeze" on "I am Ali". Great artist. Seems to come up on some tv and movie soundtracks

Otis reading of the 21st century!!

Lovely song....

Food for the soul, great music. God bless

Me encanto!

I've found my new favourite artist...took me  a while to discover this dude, but I'm so glad I did among the shit inflicted by commercial radio. 

You took the words out of my mouth!

Found him when I was watching Big Little Lies on HBO....so wonderfully talented!

Bittersweet

My girlfriend makes me happy man

I literally love this song! Why isn't it on his album??

I Think this song is going to comfort so many people in the world, Michael Kiwanuka - A Doctor of Music!!

sounds a little bit like the song SAVE THE LAST DANCE FOR ME by Aaron Neville

Josh Radnor brought me here

MOsBy got great taste....and this song is amazingly gentle....

this sounds like a song on the end of a sad himym episode!

brace yourself, the Josh Radnor army is coming...

Imagine this tune on the radio ...
Seems to me like an oasis in the desert of mostly crap on todays radio

Beautiful voice !!

Yeah true of course :) Otis Redding it is!

@SIRNatju I hate to nitpick, but it's Otis Redding.

Is this guy making real muzik? Well the answer is hell yeah, this is the music that we, the youth, have to listen, not that shit like Justin Bieber nor Lady Gaga!! But people are gettin' emptier and emptier every single day!!
