Next To Me Lyrics

Three am pacific time and we're both awake

Try to regain all this time we've lost and forget about the ache

With every word that falls in my ears my heart feels the weight

Of the distance all this time provides to add to our pain

And oh my dear

These late nights and whispers make you feel so near to me

Across the miles that are in between us

But words in the air will never quite compare to having you next to me

Three pm mountain time and I miss that northwest air

Running through it with your hand in mine like we don't have a care

I've seen every part of this country and none of it compares

To the sun reflecting in your eyes and the wind in your hair

And oh my dear

These late nights and whispers make you feel so near to me

Across the miles that are in between us

But words in the air will never quite compare to having you next to me

And across these miles I feel your heart in sync with mine

With every beat I know we'll be alright

And absence makes the heart grow stronger

So every moment away adds to our forever

As I stumble on back your face is all I see

I'll reach out and pull you close to me

And oh my dear

Those late nights and whispers made you feel so near to me

Across the miles that were in between

No more words in the air

No more miles of despair

No more late nights spent up wanting you near

And every steadfast moment has brought us here

Now you're next to me

Eight am pacific time and we're both awake
