The Isley Brothers · Other Songs - The Isley Brothers

No, I'm not alone don't think I want to be gone

'Cause my thoughts always stay with you

There's no need to be sad, you know where my head is at

And my heart always stays with you

When I feel kind of lonely

When I need a reason to smile, yeah yeah yeah



You're beside me, everywhere I go

Most of all you stayed in my mind

You're beside me, I'm there with you

I'm feeling all the things that you do



Seeing you in my mind gonna bring you closer

Even though you're not around

Living every day I can see

I'm gonna have my share of ups and downs

When I feel kinda lonely

When I need a reason to smile



You're beside me, everywhere I go

Most of all you stay in my mind

You're beside me, you're everywhere

Here with me wherever I go



Everywhere I go

I like the way you give that good-time feeling

Everywhere I go

Right now you know the way you've got me feeling



No, you're not alone don't think I want to gone

'Cause my thoughts always stay with you

There's no need to be sad, you know where my head is at

And my heart always stays with you

When I feel kinda lonely

When I need a reason to smile



You're beside me, you're everywhere I go

Most of all you stay in my mind

You're beside me, you're everywhere

Here with me wherever I go



Everywhere I go

I like the way you give that good-time feeling

Everywhere I go

Right now you know the way you've got me feeling



Everywhere I go

Honey, I like the way you give that good-time feeling

Everywhere I go

Right now you know the way you've got me feeling



You're beside me, everywhere I go

Most of all you stay in my mind

You're beside me, everywhere

Here with me wherever I go



You're beside me, everywhere I go

Most of all you stay in my mind

You're beside me, you're everywhere

Here with me wherever I go



You're beside me, everywhere I go

Most of all you stay in my mind
