Next To You

Try to pretend that you are comfortable

I guess I know you better than you think

Try to pretend that you are far away

I guess I better buy you a stiff drink

How could you try to forget what we once had

Better not tell anyone it was bad

Sorry I can't get any further away

You better deal cause I'm gonna stay

Next to you, I never wanted to, but now that I'm

Next to you, I just can't help myself being

Next to you, there isn't anyone else

That I would rather do

Try to pretend that you don't get a small chill

Every single time that I pass you

Try to pretend that you don't want a big thrill

Even half as much as I know you do

I knew you couldn't forget what you once had

Even though it ended so awfully bad

I'm sure the second round won't end the same way

You'd better hope cause I'm gonna stay

Next to you, I never wanted to, but now that I'm

Next to you, I just can't help myself being

Next to you, there isn't anyone else

That I would rather do

Try to pretend that you are comfortable

I guess I know you better than you think

Try to pretend that you are far away

I guess I better buy you a stiff drink

Don't think of running away cause I'll catch you

And make you sorrier than you ever knew

I know I've lost it - I don't care, so anyway

You'd better deal cause I'm gonna stay

Next to you, I never wanted to, but now that I'm

Next to you, I just can't help myself being

Next to you, there isn't anyone else

That I would rather do

Next to you, next to you, next to you, next to you.
