Next To You

Next to you
Next to you
They don't even matter
They don't even measure up
They don't want to know

Next to you
Next to you
They don't even register
They don't even qualify
They don't even compare

Save them from knowing you've outdone
Them each and everyone
Deftly softly
Save them from knowing what is possible
From knowing what they'll never have

Next to you
Next to you
I know that I matter
I know that I measure up
I know this I know

Save them from knowing I've outdone
Them each and everyone
Deftly softly
Save them from knowing what is possible
From knowing what they'll never have

Next to you
Next to you
I know this I know
I know this I know
