Lying Close Beside You

The sheets feel cold tonight
I miss your body on the other side
The clock says twelve to two
I'm not used to sleeping without you
And what's keeping me awake
That I tried so hard to reach you
Cause I have so much to say
And I just realise
That lying close beside you
Is the only thing I really need tonight
You gave me a little time
To take this trip so I could finally find
There's a man I need to be
He's been restless deep inside of me
And I slowly start to see
That the closest things around me
Are the only ones I need
And I just realise
That lying close beside you
Is the only thing I really need tonight
But it was hard to see
When everyone around us knew exactly what to be
And now I understand
The key to open up the door
Has always been
Right here in my hands
The clock says half past three
The house is dark, the kids are sound asleep
and as I slip into the bed
All these thoughts keep rushing through my head
But then you slowly turn around
I look into your eyes and see
Everything is perfectly alright
And I just realise
That lying here beside you
Is as close as I will get to paradise
