So afraid to take a chance again;

So afraid of what I feel inside.

(chorus:)

But I need to be next to you. (Need to be next to you.)

oh, I oh, I

I need to share every breath with you. (Share every breath with 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; here with you.

oh I

I need to be next to you.

(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 bare the thought of you not there;

I can't fight what I feel anymore.

(chorus)

I need to have your love next to mine

For all time.

Hold you for all my life.

I need to be next to you.

(chorus)

I need to feel you in my arms, baby!

oh, I oh, I (x2)

I need to be next to you.

oh, I oh I
