Blue Kid - Next To You lyrics

rate me

You know I live just over the Williamsburg line

Sure ain’t got the money but the living is fine

All I wanna do is spend all of my time

Next to you

I know you’re pretty much working a 9 to 9

Seven days a week so I’d best get in line

If I wanna spend what’s left of your time

Next to you

And I don’t need your promise

No need to panic or get overly manic, no

I don’t need to call this anything, baby

No strings, baby, I’ll just sing my songs, butter my bread

Get enough together to stay housed and stay fed

And then falling asleep dreaming of laying my head

Next to you

And I don’t need to call this anything, baby

No strings, baby, no, I don’t need your promise

On some rainy day once you lied anyway

And oh, Lord knows I didn’t choose this feeling

And if I can I don’t wanna lose this feeling

Take your hand and put it in mine

Ask me how I’m doing and I’ll tell you I’m fine

‘Cause what I’m doing is spending some time

Next to you

I’ll just sing my songs on my way out the gate

Doesn’t matter if I’m early ‘cause I know you’ll be late

And at the end of today I’ll set down my weight

Next to you

And I don’t need your promise, no need to swear

Except to say who cares

And I don’t need to call this, placing all my bets

As long as I can get next to you

Next to you
