Need To Be Next To You Lyrics by Michelle Branch

Need To Be Next To You

I've run from these feelings for so long
telling my heart I didn't need you
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'd 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 smiling 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'll lose my mind if I can't see you
without you there is 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 smiling 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 your heart next to mine
for all the time
hold you for all my life
I need to be next to you

I need to be next to you [to be next to you]
oh I, oh I
need to be, need to be next to you
share every breath with you
oh, oh I
I need to feel you in my arms, babe [oh...]
in my arms, babe [oh I...]
I need to be next to you
oh I, oh I
[oh I...]
