Intro – soft piano]
(gentle piano, distant violin)
Ohh…
Stay…
[Verse 1]
There’s a silence in the room tonight
Where your laughter used to be
I keep reaching for your shadow
But it’s slipping out of me
Every corner feels so empty
Every breath is hard to take
I didn’t know how much I needed you
Till my whole world started to break
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to be strong on my own
But I don’t wanna be alone
[Chorus – emotional lift]
I need you beside me
When the night gets too deep
When the tears start falling
And I can’t even breathe
I need you to hold me
Like you did before
‘Cause nothing feels right anymore
I need you beside me…
[Verse 2]
I still hear your voice in my head
Like a song that never fades
Every word you left unspoken
Still echoes through the pain
I keep chasing all the memories
But they’re fading into blue
And every road I try to walk on
Somehow leads me back to you
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter how far I run
You’re still the only one
[Chorus – fuller, violin enters]
I need you beside me
When the night gets too deep
When the tears start falling
And I can’t even breathe
I need you to hold me
Like you did before
‘Cause nothing feels right anymore
I need you beside me…
[Bridge – piano only → violin swell]
If I could turn back time
I’d never let you go
I’d say all the things
I was too scared to show
(violin rises)
Now I’m here in the dark
With a broken heart…
[Final Chorus – powerful]
I need you beside me
More than you’ll ever know
Every piece of me is calling
But you’re too far to hold
I need you to save me
From losing it all
‘Cause I’m barely standing at all
I need you beside me…
[Outro – soft, fading]
(piano + violin)
I need you…
Beside me…
