Next to Me

I’d been driving with expectation
To reach a certain destination
Without indulging hesitation

When I first felt you…
Next to me

Heading where I want to belong
Working hard for so very long
After watching my life go wrong

And I still felt you…
Next to me

In the silence there we gelled
Then you spoke and broke the spell
We’d be together, you did foretell

All the while I felt you…
Next to me

Now your thoughts are in my head
Your aim is sure, you often said
Our dear friendship instinctively wed

And I truly felt you …
Next to me

Then we let our loves slip by
Never stopped to reason why
It wasn’t in us to even try

Now I keenly felt you…
Next to me

Time can never be replaced
Once it’s gone it gets erased
Only the future is able to wait

Where I will forever feel you…
Next to me

Bella, 'Time can never be replaced
Once it’s gone it gets erased
Only the future is able to wait'
