[Verse 1]
Yes, I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was
Right there, right next to you
And it's hard, the days just seem so dark
The moon, the stars are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin,
Where do I begin?
No words can explain the way I’m missing you
Deny this emptiness, this hole that I’m inside
These tears, they tell their own story
[Pre Chorus]
You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling’s overwhelming, it's much too strong
[Chorus]
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you’re alright?
I’ll take care of you,
I don’t want to be here if I can’t be with you tonight
[Verse 2]
I’m reaching out to you
Can you hear my call? (who's to say you won't hear me?)
This hurt that I’ve been through
I’m missing you, missing you like crazy
[Pre Chorus]
You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling’s overwhelming, it's much too strong
[Chorus]
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you’re alright?
I’ll take care of you
I don’t wanna be here if I can’t be with you tonight
[Bridge]
Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
[Chorus]
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
