I've been watching you from the corner of my eye

I can't stand it, be too close, can't stand it

Be too far and I can't say why, yeah

And as the shadow fades

Where you walk away

My secret's written all across my face



I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, tonight

I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, ohh



Oh, I've been watching you from the corner of the sea

You are silent

Eyes of eyes

You are silent

Hands of hands

And I want them both on me

But in the quiet strain

The mention of your name

And I'm running from you

And running to you all the same



I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, tonight

I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, oh tonight

I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight

Round and round we go

The shadows dance by so slow

But only for me to know



I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, oh tonight

I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight, oh tonight

I only want you near me

I only want you near me

Tonight

Hey yeah



I only want you near me
