Next to You

Let it slide, let it drift away,
I pierce the clouds to feel the light,
'Cause soon too the cold air comes by,
Under shadows that bring the night.
The warming grace of your touch,
Pressed in a smile against my skin,
But it's not enough 'cause I still feel,
The breeze and shiver within.

'Cause there are times that have passed me by,
And better days that I have forgot,
But what did I do with all of the light?
And where have the brighter days all gone?

Isn't it amazing?
Just what the mind is capable of.
Well look...
... it created you.

In this vision so blurred in time,
A reality that just won't last,
A single touch could break me down,
Like I'm a fragile figure of glass.
But I believe in us, it pulls me in,
Even in a light that's growing dim,
And I don't wanna lose when I don't know what,
When I know this can't be what it's not.

'Cause there are times that have passed me by,
And better days that I have forgot,
But what did I do with all of the light?
And where have the brighter days all gone?

I could save your world from dying,
Put out all the smoke.
Sacrifice myself for all,
And watch the fever grow.
Fly a rocket into space,
And take you to the moon,
I could save your world but it won't mean much,
If I can't get next to you.

I know there's an air of inevitability about this,
I know what I need to do,
But I don't know how I need to do it,
I just hope this helps.
There's still, something missing,
Still something... wait.
Music.
Or not so much the music, but the noise.
See I can't stand the silence,
'Cause all I hear in the silence is you,
And it's deafening.
But, maybe I'll always, maybe you'll always be there,
I hope so,
But then again,
I hope not.

I could save your world from dying,
Put out all the smoke.
Sacrifice myself for all,
And watch the fever grow.
Fly a rocket into space,
And take you to the moon,
I could save your world but it won't mean much,
If I can't get next to you.

You-ooohhh.
