Lyrics Next to Me - Columbus

Next to Me

Keep your head close
Your coffee breath on my neck
Clothes, lining the floor of your shoebox apartment
Like fresh snow in the garden
Your breath deep, but inside your chest
Your heart weeps since the day that they left
But you keep me dreaming
When you’re thinking of leaving
You packed your bags and said…
I’m sorry, but I need to leave
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
It hurts to stay, lips so bittersweet
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
Your shadow dances on the wall
As you lie still, your back to the world
Dreaming of summer, and those days with your lover
I see you pull off, your skin tight jeans
In the stupor of five am sleep
Your keys in your pocket
My cigarettes and your wallet
And I hear you whisper…
I’m sorry, but I need to leave
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
It hurts to stay, lips so bittersweet
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
Woah
I’m sorry, but I need to leave
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
It hurts to stay, lips so bittersweet
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
With you next to me, with you next to me
With you next to me, I can’t get to sleep
