Citrus - Next To You Lyrics

I led you to water, but I couldn't ever make you drink
And now the ship that we both built together is starting to sink
Don't throw me overboard, I'll be your life jacket, I'm here by your side
We're both stranded in the deep end, how's it fair for only one to survive

And I could leave town, start to drive, drive away far from you
But the truth is a part of me's still lying there next to you
The streets of this town know my footprints by now, it's true
You can call off the search, look no further for me than next to you

I can still remember how you looked at me the night that we first met
And though we made mistakes, I wouldn't take it back, no, I refuse to regret
Forget the small talk, open up and tell me how you want to be loved
Believe that I will hear you and know that I can never get enough, enough, enough

'Cause I could leave town, start to drive, drive away far from you
But the truth is a part of me's still lying there next to you
The streets of this town know footprints by now, it's true
You can call off the search, look no further for me there next to you

It's hard to express and I'm scared to address that I'll always be there next to you
Whenever you're near your rejection I fear, but still I'll be there next to you
Won't you open your arms and protect me from harm and show me that I'm safe next to you
Better yet look at me and say that you agree and you want to be next to me too

Say we could leave town, start to drive, drive away, drive with you
And no matter how far we're apart I'll be there next to you
The streets of this town know my footprints by now, it's true
Call off the search, look no further for me there next to you
