Lyrics

No one knows the side of you that I know No one gets to see, to feel you To hear you when they call I'm the only one you answer Because I know what to do I know what to do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so wanna give you Is only a heartbeat away When I need love I hold out my hand and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day Miles and miles of empty space in between us A telephone can't take the place of your smile But I won't be traveling forever It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so wanna give you Is only a heartbeat away It's not easy when the road is your driver But honey that's the heavy load that we bear But I won't be traveling a lifetime It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do When I need you Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah But I won't be traveling a lifetime It's cold out, ooh, honey, hold out, yeah, yeah And do like I do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you, baby And all that I so wanna give you Is only a heartbeat away When I need love I hold out my hand and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day Honey, when I need you (I'm in a cloud and I'm holding my hand out to you) (Holding my hand out to you) (Holding my hand out for you) (You)
