[Bbm] When
[Ab]
[Gb] [Ab]
I [Db] need you
I just close my eyes and [Ab] I'm with you
And all that [A] I so [Bbm] want to give you
It's [Ab] [Eb] only [Ab] a heartbeat away
When [Db] I need love
[Gb] [Db] I hold out my hand, [Ab] I touch love
I never knew [A] there was [Bbm] so much love
Keeping me warm night [Ab] and day
[Bbm] Miles and miles of empty space in [Ab] between us
[Bbm] A telephone can't take the place [Ab] of your smile

[Db] And do like [Gb] I do [Db] when I need you
I just close my eyes and [Ab] I'm with you
And all that [A] I so [Bbm] want to give you, baby
It's only a heartbeat [Ab] away
[Bbm] It's not easy when the road is [Ab] your driver
[Bbm] Honey, that's a heavy load that [Ab] we bear
[Db] But you know I won't be traveling [Ebm] a lifetime
