Near Me
Here is the thing I should have told you,
When I told you nothing at all.
Filling the air with so much nonsense
It’s nonsense we’ll never recall.
Here is the thing, deeper than anything
I’ve ever told you before.

When you’re near me,
All that I want is you near me,
There’s nothing I need,
When you’re near me,
All that I want is to want you to want you to be
Near me.

When you’re away, I never miss you
Until I sit down by myself
That’s when I know, I take for granted
The place that you hold in my life.
Just so you know, just by you loving me
There’s not a thing that I need, but you,

Near me,
All that I want is you near me.
There’s nothing I need,
when you’re near me,
All that I want is to want you to want you to be
Near me.

there in my heart,
You are a part of my life that I can’t be without.

When you’re near me,
All that I want is you near me,
There’s nothing I need,
When you’re near me,
All that I want is to want you to want you to be
Near me.
