Been running from these feelings for so long
Telling my heart I didn't mean 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

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 near 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 bear the thought of you not there
I can't fight what I feel anymore

Cause 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 near with you oh I
I need to be next to you

I need to have you right next to mine
For all time
Hold you 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 with you
I need to feel you in my arms babe
In my arms babe
I need to be next to you
