Next To Me (Live)

Next to me my darling you know I really felt complete But now I sit in this coffee shop staring at the empty seat Next to me, oh next to me How I wish you were still next to me Riding on our bicycles through the endless aimless days You filled my soul with laughter with that smile upon your face Next to me, oh next to me How I remember you next to me So who do you hold at night in your little cottage room When the rain beats on the roof and the storms block out the moon Next to me, oh next to me We were lying in your bed and you were next to me Next to me is where you ought to be But you prefer to walk your path alone Where will you go now Where will you call home Remember me my love, I was yours and yours alone The highway was a beacon a tractor beam calling me I wanted to run from the chaos to a place where we were free Next to me, oh next to me I look and you're no longer next to me We walked the hills of Asheville carnival Old Orchard Beach The stars were all against us and our dreams were out of reach Next to me, oh next to me Through hard times you were still next to me I watched the British Open and how gallantly he fought But the old man missed the final shot and I knew that we were lost Next to me, oh next to me Lady Luck is no longer next to me Your heart has changed it's locked up now I guess I lost the key But that's alright it's only life go on and be free Next to me, oh next to me I gotta thank ya for the time you spent next to me There's order to the universe even when it's bad to worse Some things just ain't meant to be and no one gets off easily Next to me, oh next to me In the land of dreams you are still next to me The best of times they never last it always moves to end So take good care of your memories you can't live them again Next to me, oh next to me Pictures of you when you were next to me
