Standing Right Next to Me by Karla Bonoff
From the motion picture “8 Seconds”
Love is like the wind,
Sometimes it blows your way,
And until now
It missed me somehow.
But when I turned around
I saw you standing there.
The sound of your voice –
I had no choice.
I used to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this.
Now I know love exists
Cause it’s standing right next to me.
Beneath the moon tonight
I see it in your eyes –
No more false starts,
No more broken hearts.
I used to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this.
Now I know love exists
Cause it’s standing right next to me.
Even in the dark,
Even when you’re gone
I feel you in my heart.
I used to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this.
Now I know love exists
Cause it’s standing right next to me
Standing right next to me
