Luther Vandross - When I Need You lyrics

No one knows the side of you that I know No one gets to see, to feel you To hear you when they call I'm the only one you answer Because I know what to do I know what to do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you Is only a heartbeat away When I need love I hold out my hand and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day Miles and miles of empty space in between us A telephone can't take the place of your smile But I won't be traveling forever It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you And all that I so want to give you Is only a heartbeat away It's not easy when the road is your driver But honey that's the heavy load that we bear But I won't be traveling a lifetime It's cold out, but hold out And do like I do When I need you But I won't be traveling a lifetime It's cold out, oh honey, hold out And do like I do When I need you I just close my eyes and I'm with you baby And all that I so want to give you Is only a heartbeat away When I need love I hold out my hand and I touch love I never knew there was so much love Keeping me warm night and day Honey, when I need you I'm in a cloud and I'm holding my hand out to you Holding my hand out to you Holding my hand out for you
