Next To Me Lyrics
You are my only escape
You are the reason that I wait
On the corner of this empty street
I just can't wait to meet
There's so much a man can do
There's so much a man can say
See I have done so many things wrong
That you should have saw me away
I've got this second chance, I'm gonna take it
I've got this song and dance, I'm gonna take it
I've got all that I need
And I can taste it
I've got you next to me
I don't want to waste it
You are my only embrace
You are the light that lights my face
Any fool would do the same
Oh to follow in your trace
People come and people go
But I know I should have been replaced
I know it
I've got this second chance, I'm going to take it
I've got this song and dance, I'm going to take it
I've got all that I need
I can taste it
I've got you next to me
And I don't want to waste it
I'm gonna take it
All that I can get
I'm gonna take it
It's beautiful the way you move, the way you take me back
Here she comes, around the bend, she's coming to take me back
Oh I've got this second chance, I'm going to take it
I've got this song and dance, I'm going to take it
I've got all that I need
I can taste it
I've got you next to me
I don't want to waste it
You are my only escape
You are the reason that I wait
You are the reason that I wait
On the corner of this empty street
I just can't wait to meet
There's so much a man can say
See I have done so many things wrong
That you should have saw me away
I've got this song and dance, I'm gonna take it
I've got all that I need
And I can taste it
I've got you next to me
I don't want to waste it
You are the light that lights my face
Any fool would do the same
Oh to follow in your trace
But I know I should have been replaced
I know it
I've got this second chance, I'm going to take it
I've got this song and dance, I'm going to take it
I've got all that I need
I can taste it
I've got you next to me
And I don't want to waste it
I'm gonna take it
All that I can get
I'm gonna take it
Here she comes, around the bend, she's coming to take me back
I've got this song and dance, I'm going to take it
I've got all that I need
I can taste it
I've got you next to me
I don't want to waste it
You are the reason that I wait

Its actually "FEARS are only walls that hold me here..." instead of "These are only walls that hold me here..." But this song is a true work of art. Not many bands nowadays can pull off using a piano in a song and meshing it with an electric guitar successfully. I'm expecting good stuff form this band in the years to come.
Okay, I've got a theory: they are Christians who relate Jesus to a girl in all of their songs, possibly so that they can pass as a "secular" band, or maybe just because they feel like it. Or maybe they're just talking about both.
Late Reply Alert :: They are a band who mainly get's their publicity based on tours. So I don't think they have anything to worry about when it comes to the whole religion topic. I believe most of their songs are about a woman. This assumption is merely based on the video "Letters From The Sky". But this is just an opinion from a great fan (me).
