Lyrics
NEXT TO YOU
I want to get next to you
I want to get all the things that you do
Stuck inside my head
It’s after dark and your eyes still shine
Hold my hand and I’ll hold your heart in mine
I’m going where I’m led
Don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely tonight
The band is playing, they’re right in time
The carousel turns around but I don’t mind
My dizzy dreams of you
I count the hours I spend with you
One by one, and two by two by two
I’ve lost my mind in you
Don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely tonight
Why do you suppose we’re only friends ?
Can’t you picture us together again ?
Leave me to my dreams, or let’s just pretend
I want to get next to you
I want to get all the things that you do
Stuck inside my head
Don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely
Please don’t let me be lonely tonight
