Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Next To You lyrics

(S. Van Zandt)

The same old places hurt inside

But I still take that one sweet ride

Baby, when I can

The same old faces I despise

Coming 'round here tellin' lies

Sayin' they understand

I'm trying to make it, baby, but it's no good

I wouldn't give the satisfaction even if I could

Well there's nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

To get next to you

The money came, the money went

And all the time, baby, we knew it wouldn't last too long

You spent your life on easy street

Well that's one game I never beat

You know, on me it always looked so wrong

You can't walk away, baby, without getting scarred

I want it so badly, I'm trying too hard

Well there's nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

To get next to you

You say there's nothing left to believe in

That somehow it wasn't meant to be

Oh don't you believe in me?

Oh, baby, there is nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

To get next to you

Oh, I gotta get next to you, girl

Baby, I gotta get next to you

Honey there's nothing, nothing I wouldn't do

Oh, baby, I got to, got to, got to get next to you, girl
