[Verse]
Been running from this feeling for so long
Telling my heart I didn t need it
Pretending I was better off alone
But I know that it s just a lie
So afraid to take a chance again
So afraid of what I feel inside
[Chorus]
But I need to be next to you, oh I, oh I
I need to share every breath of you, oh I, oh I
I need to know I can see you smile each morning
Look into your eyes each night for the rest of my life
Here with you, near with you, oh I
I need to be next to you
[Verse]
(pause)
Need to be next to you
Right here with you is right where I belong
I lose my mind if I can t see you
Without you there s nothing in this life
That would make life worth living for
I can t make it if you re not there
I can t fight what I feel any more
[Chorus]
Cause I need to be next to you, oh I, oh I
I need to share every breath of you, oh I, oh I
I need to know I can see you smile each morning
Look into your eyes each night for the rest of my life
Here with you, near with you, oh I
I need to be next to you
[Chorus/Outro]
I need to have your arms next to mine for all the time
Holding for all my life
I need to be next to you
I need to be next to you, oh I, oh I
Need to be, need to be next to you
Share every breath of you
i need to feel you in my arms baby, in my arms baby
(fading)
i need to be next to you, oh i, oh i
