No one knows the side of you that I know
|
No one gets to see, to feel you
|
To hear you when they call
|
I'm the only one you answer
|
Because I know what to do
|
I know what to do
|
|
When I need you
|
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
|
And all that I so want to give you
|
Is only a heartbeat away
|
When I need love
|
I hold out my hand and I touch love
|
I never knew there was so much love
|
Keeping me warm night and day
|
|
Miles and miles of empty space in between us
|
A telephone can't take the place of your smile
|
But I won't be traveling forever
|
It's cold out, but hold out
|
And do like I do
|
|
When I need you
|
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
|
And all that I so want to give you
|
Is only a heartbeat away
|
|
It's not easy when the road is your driver
|
But honey that's the heavy load that we bear
|
But I won't be traveling a lifetime
|
It's cold out, but hold out
|
And do like I do
|
When I need you
|
|
But I won't be traveling a lifetime
|
It's cold out, oh honey, hold out
|
And do like I do
|
|
When I need you
|
I just close my eyes and I'm with you baby
|
And all that I so want to give you
|
Is only a heartbeat away
|
|
When I need love
|
I hold out my hand and I touch love
|
I never knew there was so much love
|
Keeping me warm night and day
|
Honey, when I need you
|
|
I'm in a cloud and I'm holding my hand out to you
|
Holding my hand out to you
|
Holding my hand out for you
|
