Next to You

Next to you

Was the only place I thought I'd ever be

Next to you

I saw all that ever mattered, next to me.



Now, you're gone

My life goes on, I found somebody new

You know he makes me happy

He's the first I ever wanted, next to you.



Chorus:

Next to you

He's the only one who'll ever know me well

Next to you

He's the only love this heart has ever felt

And I'm so close to heaven

When he's holdin' me like only you can do

I know he'll always be the only one for me

Next to you.



Without you

I swore the hurt inside would never show

And how he knew

And what he saw in me, I'll never know

Oh, he is here

And in the years to come we'll see it through

No, he'll never take your place

But there's a space for him in my heart

Next to you.



Chorus:

Next to you

He's the only one who'll ever know me well

Next to you

He's the only love this heart has ever felt

And I'm so close to heaven

When he's holdin' me like only you can do

I know he'll always be the only one for me

Next to you.



Next to you...
