Tryin' to pretend that you are comfortable,
I guess I know you better than you think.
Tryin' to pretend that you are far away,
I guess I better buy you a stiff drink.
How could you try to forget what we wanted?

Better not tell anyone it was bad.
Sorry I can't get any farther away,
You better deal coz¦

I'm gonna stay next to you,
I never wanted to but now that I'm next to you
I just can't help myself being next to you
There isn't anyone else that I would rather do.

Tryin' to pretend that you don't get a small chill
Every single time that I pass you
Tryin' to pretend that you don't want a big thrill
Even half as much as I know you do.
Honey you couldn't forget what you wanted
Even though it ended so awfully bad
I'm sure the second round won't end the same way,
You better hope coz¦

I'm gonna stay next to you,
I never wanted to but now that I'm next to you
I just can't help myself being next to you
There isn't anyone else that I would rather do.

Tryin' to pretend that you are comfortable,
I guess I know you better than you think.
Tryin' to pretend that you are far away,
I guess I better buy you a stiff drink.
Don't think of running away, coz I'll catch you
And make you sorrier than you ever knew
I know I've lost it I don't care so anyway.
You better deal coz¦

I'm gonna stay next to you,
I never wanted to but now that I'm next to you
I just can't help myself being next to you
There isn't anyone else that I would rather do.
Next to you¦
Next to you¦
Next to you¦
Next to you.
