When I Need You

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! --- When I Need You - Perry Como
