Lyrics

When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you It's only a heartbeat away When I need love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day Miles and miles of empty space in between us A telephone can't take the place of your smile But you know I won't be travelin' forever It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you, babe It's only a heartbeat away It's not easy when the road is your driver Honey, that's a heavy load that we bear But you know I won't be travelin' a lifetime It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do Oh, I need you When I need love I hold out my hands and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keepin' me warm night and day When I need you I just close my eyes And you're right here by my side Keepin' me warm night and day I just hold out my hands I just hold out my hands And I'm with you darlin' Yes, I'm with you darlin' And all I want to give you It's only a heartbeat away Oh, I need you darlin' Oh, I want you
