Next To Me

When all the lights have left the room

Will you still stand next to me

And softly say, "I love you anyway."

My yesterdays are haunting me

Reminders of those moments

I could not rely

On feelings that would die

And will I listen

And watch you fade away

Or can I wake up

And trust you when you say

You've heard this sad story before

I'm not the first to have one

The pain they left behind

When reasons were so hard to find

You wait for me to let it go

But you won't wait forever

I know you've had enough

So understand that I am still trying

And will I listen

And watch you fade away

Or can I wake up

And trust you when you say

Fall on me

Remind my worries

That your words mean much more than

My need to always feel this way

I want you here inside my fear

I want the love I lost in tears

I see your beauty inside grace

And I know I can't make this mistake

And will I listen

And watch you fade away

Or can I wake up

And trust you when you say
