When I need you 
I just close my eyes and I'm with you 
And all that I so wanna give you 
It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love 
I hold out my hands 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 
The telephone can't take the place of your smile 
But you know I won't be travelin' forever 
It's cold out but hold out and do I like I do

When I need you 
I just close my eyes and I'm with you 
And all that I so wanna give you babe 
It's only a heartbeat away

It's not easy when the road is your driver 
Honey that's a heavy load that we bear 
But you know I won't be traveling a lifetime 
It's cold out but hold out and do like I do

Oh, I need you

When I need love 
I hold out my hands and I touch love 
I never knew there was so much love 
Keeping me warm night and day

When I need you 
Just close my eyes and you're right here by my side 
Keeping me warm night and day
I just hold out my hands, I just hold out my hands 
And I'm with you, darlin'
Yes, I'm with you darlin' 
All I wanna give you it's only a heartbeat away
Oh, I need you darling
