As Long As You Are Near Me

As long as you are near me, I can see things clearly
Let me state sincerely, all my cares are gone
As long as you are near me
I will have the strength to carry on
As long as you are near me, I will love you dearly
I will speak sincerely, let me testify
As long as you are near me
I will have the strength to question why
You fly a little too high
I wonder what happened to you
You’re like the 4th of July
It’s just not the same without you, you, you, you
I hide my feelings inside
The words that I keep in my heart
I pretend a little to lie
You stop me before I can start
As long as you are near me, I can see things clearly
Let me state sincerely, all my cares are gone
As long as you are near me
I will have the strength to carry on
As long as you are near me
I will have the strength to carry on
