beside you Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh!
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just you and I, and no other guys
We got no interruptions and we both feelin' the vibe
Say I'm not your type, but I know what's on your mind
We can talk about nothin' or we can see what it's like
[Chorus]
Don't lie, baby, don't lie
His love never felt right
Switch sides and I'm beside you
If you say it's alright (Don't lie, baby, don't lie)
[Verse]
Way too many heads, need a steady view
Smokin' cigarettes at the rendezvous
Never meant to cross you
But my jaw hit the floor with the one, two
Think I want you
You say this ain't love, but it's still the same love
Make love, anything to sate ya
Don't be shy, you decide
Say, can I make you mine?
[Chorus]
Don't lie, baby, don't lie
His love never felt right
Switch sides and I'm beside you
If you say it's alright (If you say it's alright)
(Let me show you how it feel like)
Don't lie, baby, don't lie
His love never felt right
Switch sides and I'm beside you
If you say it's alright (Don't lie, baby, don't lie)
[Bridge]
(Ah) Your skin, so fine (Ah, ah, ah)
Come close, baby, put it on mine (Ah)
Your skin, so fine (Ah, ah, ah)
Come close, baby, put it on mine
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just you and I, and no other guys
We got no interruptions and we both feelin' the vibe
Say I'm not your type, but I know what's on your mind
We can talk about nothin' or we can see what it's like
No, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Don't lie, baby, don't lie (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
His love never felt right (Ah)
Switch sides and I'm beside you
If you say it's alright (Ah, ah, ah)
(Let me show you how it feel like)
[Outro]
(Don't lie, baby, don't lie)
beside you Q&A
When did keshi release beside you?
keshi released beside you on Fri Apr 23 2021.
What did keshi say about "beside you"?
I feel like the sentiment that I usually gravitate towards as a songwriter definitely deals with heartbreak, or the vulnerability that you put yourself in when you get into a relationship. That bittersweetness is something that I love to write about, but I wanted to write about something that was a...
How did the song come together?
I was lucky enough to have been introduced to Madeon through our managements. His team had actually sent over the beat for what would become “beside you” and it was titled “read your mind”, which inspired the “what’s on your mind” lyrics in the pre-chorus. I was immediately inspired the first time I...
What inspired it?
I wanted to capture the feeling of taking a breather from a packed room and meeting the someone you’d been locking eyes with the whole night outside with you. There’s a visual coming out very soon and I don’t want to spoil too much, but it was basically exactly the spot I had in my head when I wrote...
What was the process of making the song like?
Actually a lot slower and disjointed than it usually is for me. After writing the pre and hook, I kind of put the song down for a while (some months I think). My attention was definitely split across different things; writing for the album, daily life, future plans etc. I had a lackluster day in the...
