Godspell soundtrack – By My Side lyrics

[JEAN PAUL SARTRE]
Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Can you take me with you?
For my hand is cold
And needs warmth
Where are you going?
Far beyond where the horizon lies
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE]
Where the horizon lies
And the land sinks into mellow blueness
Oh please, take me with you
Let me skip the road with you
I can dare myself
I can dare myself
I'll put a pebble in my shoe
And watch me walk (watch me walk)
I can walk
[CHORUS]
I can walk!
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE]
I shall call the pebble Dare
I shall call the pebble Dare
We will walk, we will talk together
We will talk
[CHORUS]
About walking Dare shall be carried
[CHORUS]
And when we both have had enough
I will take him from my shoe, singing
[CHORUS]
"Meet your new road!"
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE]
Then I'll take your hand
Finally glad
[CHORUS]
Finally glad
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE]
That I am here
By your side (By my side)
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE AND CHORUS]
By my side (by my side)
By my side (by my side)
By my side (by my side)
By my side (by my side)
[JUDAS (Matt. 26:14-16)]
[spoken]
Then the man they called Judas Iscariot
Went to the chief priests,
and said "What will you give me to betray
Him to you?" They paid him thirty pieces of silver.
And from that moment,
he began to look out for an opportunity
To betray Him.
[SOCRATES AND JEAN PAUL SARTRE AND CHORUS]
[sung]
By my side (by my side, by my side)
By my side (by my side, by my side)
By my side (by my side, here by my side)
