Mychael Danna

Been running from these feelings for so long,
Telling my heart I didn't need it,
Pretending I was better off alone.
But I know it was just a lie.

So afraid to take a chance again;
So afraid of what I feel inside.

*But I need to be next to you.
(Need to be next to you.)
oh, I oh, I
I need to share every breath with you.
(Share every breath with you.)
oh, I oh, I
I need to know I can see you smile each morning,
Look into your eyes each night,
For the rest of my life.
Here with you; here with you.
oh I
I need to be next to you.
(need to be next to you)

Right here with you is right where I belong.
I lose my mind if I can't see you.
Without you there's nothing in this life
That would make life worth living for.
I can't bare the thought of you not there;
I can't fight what I feel anymore.

* Repeat

I need to have your love next to mine
For all time.
Hold you for all my life.
I need to be next to you.

* Repeat

I need to feel you in my arms, baby!
oh, I oh, I (x2)
I need to be next to you.
oh, I oh I

Check your weapons at the door
You don't live here anymore
but a heart can not repent
if it doesn't know it's bent
it's like it's beating itself to death

There you are, still as stone
stretching skin on the bone
Well they say I've lost my will
but I'm just standing still
In a world that swallows cowards for the crime of killing time


*I'm checking out the scenery
from as high as I can be
Come, let faith be your garden
always changing, always still...
still breathing


And there you are in my mind
Will from living underground
Divided and divided until
noone can be found
nothing left to break down


*repeat

*repeat

Check your weapons at the door
You don't live here anymore
Well they say I've lost my will
but I'm just standing still
In a world that swallows cowards for the crime of killing time


still breathing...
still breathing...

Pardon me for asking
But, where the hell d'ya come from?
Do you come here often?
Are you here with someone?
'cause I swear to God that I've seen you a hundred time before
Do you have my number?
'cause I am what you're looking for

Pardon my presumption
My dubious intentions
It isn't very often
That I fall this hard for someone
And I know this may sound crazy
I don't wanna freak you out
But give me just a moment
To tell you what I'm all about

'cause, I'm no ordinary girl, in an ordinary world
I'm no plain Jane, Mary-Ann, or Suzie-Jan, or Eleanor
And as strange as it may seem, I've got a pocket full of dreams
You've got happiness for sale across the room and I want more
My world's an open door

Get my underscription upon ?
But do you believe in free love in candid conversation
Cause I've spent my whole life hiding to hide in a plastic shell
Now that I have found you
I'm gonna crawl out of myself

'cause, I'm no ordinary girl, in an ordinary world
I'm no plain Jane, Mary-Ann, or Suzie-Jan, or Eleanor
And as strange as it may seem, I've got a pocket full of dreams
You've got happiness for sale across the room and I want more
My world's an open door

Hey now
I don't care I don't really wanna know now
Take a walk out for a while if you can now
I'm the only girl you wanna be around now
Hey now, I'm gonna love you
Can you never never leave me now
Cause I'm no ordinary girl, I wanna break it now

'cause, I'm no ordinary girl, in an ordinary world
I'm no plain Jane, Mary-Ann, or Suzie-Jan, or Eleanor
And as strange as it may seem, I've got a pocket full of dreams
You've got happiness for sale across the room and I want more
I'm no ordinary girl, in an ordinary world
I'm no plain Jane, Mary-Ann, or Suzie-Jan, or Eleanor
And as strange as it may seem, I've got a pocket full of dreams
You've got happiness for sale across the room and I want more
My world's an open door

I'm no ordinary girl, in an ordinary world
