Next To Me

[Am]     [C]knowing that you're out there,
Knowing you're at home,
and I'm here alone

feels like forever
forever and a day
you feel so far away
I know you're thinkin' it's time to let me go
and there's just one more thing
you need to know

dont say were runnin' out of time
dont say i'm never on your mind
dont say you're givin' up on me
and I need right now
so I can make you see
somehow this is meant to be
tonight I want you next to me
I want you next to me

I keep a picture in my pocket
reminding me of you
every night gets harder
but I know we'll make it through

I know you're thinkin its time to let me go
and there's just one more thing
you need to know

don't say were runnin' out of time
don't say im never on your mind
don't say you're givin' up on me
and I need right now
so I can make you see
somehow this is meant to be
tonight I want you next to me
I want you next to me

time away from you
can't stand this (no longer)
I did this for you
my heart just grows stronger
spendin' every night alone
and i'm missin' you (you)
if you could only see
what you mean to me

and I say

don't say were runnin' out of time
don't say im never on your mind
don't say you're givin' up on me
and I need right now
so I can make you see
somehow this is meant to be
tonight I want you next to me
I want you next to me
