Next To Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So calm inside
It's where I didn't want to be
Repeating all our history
And down we slide

[Bridge]
I didn't mean it
I never said the things you liked
On my life

[Verse 2]
So cold outside
Sure feels like our destiny
With extra special scenery
And amber light

[Bridge]
I didn't mean it
I never said the things you liked
All those words
You left behind
They remind me of your smile

[Chorus]
Next to me is a memory
Now I know
It's gonna be just fine
Every day we need to feel the pain
Now I know
It's gonna be my time

[Verse 3]
I can't decide
The walls are closing in on me
You took out all the ecstasy
And blew my mind

[Bridge Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]
