Next to Me Songtext
von Jonathan Roy

Somethin′ 'bout the way that you walked into my livin′ room
Casually and confident, lookin' at the mess I am
But still you, still you want me

Stress lines and cigarettes, politics and deficits
Late bills and overages, screamin' out and hollerin′
And still you, still you want me

And I always let you down
You′re shattered on the ground
Still, I find you there next to me
And all the stupid things I do
I'm far from good, it′s true
But still, I find you next to me

Somethin' ′bout the way that you always see the pretty view
Overlook the bloody mess, always lookin' effortless
And still you, still you want me

And I′ve got no innocence (oh, oh), faith ain't no privilege
I am a deck of cards (oh, oh, oh), vice over game of hearts
And still you (oh, oh), still you want me


And I always let you down
You're shattered on the ground
Still, I find you there next to me
And all the stupid things I do
I′m far from good, it′s true
But still, I find you next to me

Thank you
For takin' a chance on me
I know it isn′t easy
But I hope to be worth it
Thank you (thank you)
For takin' a chance on me (takin′ a chance on me)
I know it isn't easy (oh)
But I hope to be worth it

And I (I) always let you down
You′re shattered on the ground
Still, I find you there next to me (oh, oh, oh)
And all the stupid things I do (stupid things I do)
I'm far from good, it's true
But still, I find you next to me

And still, I find you there next to me (ooh)
