Lay Your Heart Next to Mine

It sure is good to see your smile
At the end of a long hard day
Life out there is easier to bear
When you look at me this way

I can't count the times
You dance through my mind
While I'm tryin' to be who I am
But you got to believe
I'm not really me
'Til I'm back in your arms again

'Cause it all comes clear
When we're both right here
And you lay your heart next to mine

I'll never get used to those short goodbyes
As I'm runnin' out the door
And I'll always hate walkin' away
While you're tryin' to kiss me once more

But I've got to do what I've got to do
And even when it don't go like I plan
I tell myself, if there's nothin' else
When every day comes to an end

It will be all right
When you hold me tight
And you lay your heart next to mine

Every beat
Every breath
That I have you here with me
Is worth all the rest, oh yes
And every dream
In my mind
Comes alive every night, every time

And the world stands still
That's the way it feels
When you lay your heart next to mine
Come and lay your heart next to mine
