Near Me Songtext

von Yonder Mountain String Band

I'll ask you once as I'm leaving
Is there anything that I can do to make you change your mind
I'll ask you once now that I'm leaving
Will you leave all of our memories behind

[Chorus]
I told you that my mind was all askew
And I hope that you know anything at all
If we could hold onto all of our memories
And I'll face all the trouble I have caused
I need you near me, oh

How many times must I tell you
Everything that I have, I give it all to you
And though I know how you're feeling
I hope that you can see that I will make it up to you

[ Chorus ]

Well, now you think that it's not working
Well, give me time and I'll show you that you're wrong
And then I'll hope that it will tell you
What a waste it would be to throw it all away

Now it's clear how wrong I was
I never want to hurt you again
To look in your eyes and see that you've cried
It pains me inside to know what I've done

Just one more time I have to ask you
Is there anything I can do to make you change your mind
And one more time as I'm leaving
Will you leave all of our memories behind

[ Chorus ]
