Beside the One You Love

[Verse 1]
You're helpless, entranced by the magical
Touch of her skin against yours, adrift –
What else is there but this?

[Refrain 1]
It feels so sweet
To fall asleep
Beside the One You Love

[Verse 2]
Remember this fireside, this quiet room
Embers now flickering their last, like ghosts
And still she holds you close

[Refrain 2]
Who else could know
Such afterglow
Beside the One You Love?

[Chorus 1]
Beside the One You Love?
Beside the One You Love?

[Verse 3]
Someday the memory will come again
As vivid as sensation now and then
There'll be no "why?" or "when?"

[Refrain 3]
Who else could do
These things to you
Beside the One You Love?

[Chorus 2]
Beside the One You Love?
Beside the One You Love?
Beside the one
Beside the One You Love?

[Outro/Refrain 1]
It feels so sweet
To fall asleep
Beside the One You Love
