As Long As You Near Me

As long as you are near me, I can see things clearly

Let me state sincerely, all my cares are gone

As long as you are near me

I will have the strength to carry on

As long as you are near me, I will love you dearly

I will speak sincerely, let me testify

As long as you are near me

I will have the strength to question why

You fly a little too high

I wonder what happened to you

You're like the Fourth of July

It's just not the same without you, you, you, you

I hide my feelings inside

The words that I keep in my heart

I pretend a little to lie

You stop me before I can start, oh, oh, oh

As long as you are near me, I can see things clearly

Let me state sincerely, all my cares are gone

As long as you are near me

I will have the strength to carry on

As long as you are near me

I will have the strength to carry on
