Next to You

I saw you down there staring

It’s true, you caught my eye

I was hoping you weren’t daring

Enough to come say hi

I could tell that you were trouble

Thought it best to keep the space

But now you’re in my bubble

And this feeling won’t escape

I want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you

Because there's just something about you

That’s pulling me your way

Something in the air around you

Gets me drunk on all you say

And I try so hard to fight it

But it seems like there’s no use

There’s no way I can deny it

And I know you feel it, too

I want to stand next to you

I won't take you home this evening

You won't see inside my room

There's someone there believing

I somehow hung the moon

And I'm never gonna hurt him

‘Cause he’s all I'll ever need

And I’m not sure I deserve him

But I’ll never let make him leave

So I just want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you

Because there’s just something about you

That’s pulling me your way

But I can’t wrap my arms around you

Or get wrapped up in today

All my lips can touch is whiskey

All my hands can hold is glass

Even though I know it’s risky

I’m still up for the task

I want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you

Because there’s just something about you

That’s pulling me your way

And when I go I know I’m bound to

Let my imagination play

And it feels so good to feel good

It’s nice to know I can

But that sure don’t mean that I should

I’m wise enough to understand

I want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you

I just want to stand next to you
