Next To Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Forgive me if i seem a little careless

I’m trying, but i’m still so new to this

I’m learning that i need to

Let it, let it, let it be

I’m scared that somehow i will mess it up

That my faith in love will never be enough

But your voice picks me up and

Rescues, rescues, rescues me

And every time i try to see

I am losing sight of what is really there

I just wanna feel like a ship on the ocean

Flying like a bird, floating in the air

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

We can end up anywhere

You can be the anchor that keeps me grounded

You can be my song, and my summer breeze

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

Don’t care where we’re going

As long as you are next to me

You’re strong, it’s everything i’m leaning on

Your hands, they keep pulling me along

If you show me, i promise i am

Listening, listen, listening

Feels crazy, but i think we’re breaking ground

This love is something we have simply found

Let’s put it somewhere we can

Keep it, keep, keep it, keep it safe

‘cause when i’m holding on too tight

I am missing out on what is really there

I just wanna feel like a ship on the ocean

Flying like a bird, floating in the air

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

We can end up anywhere

You can be the anchor that keeps me grounded

You can be my song, and my summer breeze

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

Don’t care where we’re going

As long as you are next to me

As long as you are next to me

As long as you are next to me

I just wanna feel like a ship on the ocean

Flying like a bird, floating in the air

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

We can end up anywhere

You can be the anchor that keeps me grounded

You can be my song, and my summer breeze

We don’t need to chase any destination, baby

Don’t care where we’re going

As long as you are next to me

As long as you are next to me
