When I Need You

Perry Como

Compositor: Albert Hammond / Carole Bayer Sager

When I need you,
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
and all that I so want to 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 an' day!

A thousand miles of empty space in between us
a telephone can take the place of your smile
but you know I won't be travellin' forever
it's cold out, but hold out an 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,
it's only a heartbeat away!

It's not easy when the road is goodbye, love! ( goodbye, love! )
Honey, that's a heavy load that we bare!

But you know I won't be travellin' a lifetime!
It's cold out, but hold out
an do like I do!

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 an' day!

When it's cold out,
hold out an do like I do
when I need you!
