Whenever I'M Next To You

WHENEVER I’M NEXT TO YOU (DUET)

She sings:	 
Whenever I’m next to you, 
I feel a little shy
But, when you kiss my lips, 
I feel like I can fly

He sings: 
Whenever I’m next to you, 
a fire burns deep inside
My mind tells me let it go, 
when we touch I come alive

She sings:	
Whenever I’m next to you, 
my heart sings a new song
Pulling you in real close, 
I know where I belong

He sings:	
I know you can feel my love,
as I look in your hazel eyes
I can never get enough, 
of your whispers and your sighs

She sings:	
Whenever you’re next to me, 
I feel safe and secure
I’ll give you all of my love, 
of that you can be sure

He sings:	
Whenever I’m next to you, 
it’s love I can’t deny
I’ll give you all of my love, 
on my love you can rely.

She sings:	 
Whenever I’m next to you, 
I feel a little shy
But, when you kiss my lips, 
I feel like I can fly

He sings: 
Whenever I’m next to you, 
a fire burns deep inside
My mind tells me let it go, 
when we touch I come alive

Sing together:	
I’ll give you all of my love, 
of that you can be sure
I’ll give you all of my love, 
on my love you can rely
Whenever I’m next to you 
Whenever I’m next to you
(repeat and fade)
