When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heart beat away
It's only a heartbeat away
When I need love
I hold out my hands 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 you know I wont be traveling for ever
But you know I won't be traveling forever
It's cold out, but hold out and do like I do
It's cold out, but hang in there and do like I do
When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you babe
It's only a heartbeat away
It's just a heartbeat away
It's not easy when the road is your driver
Honey, that's a heavy load that we bear
Honey, that's a heavy burden that we carry
But you know I won't be traveling a lifetime
It's cold out but hold out and do like I do
It's cold out but hang in there and do like I do
When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I reach out my hands and I feel love
I never knew, oh
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day
When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you (I just close my eyes)
And all that I so want to give you
It's only a heart beat away
It's only a heartbeat away
When I need you (When I need you)
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you baby (When I need)
It's only a heartbeat away
When I need you
