"Next To Me (Acoustic Version)" lyrics

I've been empty
When I'm low, You fill the cup, yeah
But my ego
Fights back, telling me that
I'm ready
To grab the wheel and take control
But I'll crash if I don't let myself let go

You put the X on my faded map
Draw me a line back to where You're at
Patient when I try to move too fast
I get this feeling, I get this feeling

I get this feeling in my spirit way down low
I hear it calling like a compass in my soul
Saying child, come on back now
You've been gone too long!
Let me lead you back where you belong

Right next to Me
Right next to Me

I've been captive
By the plans I tried to make, yeah
I've been selfish
'Cause callous hearts, they die hard
Like habits that I know I gotta break
Ain't it good to know that help is on the way?
Yeah

You put the X on my faded map
Draw me a line back to where You're at
Patient when I try to move too fast
I get this feeling, I get this feeling

I get this feeling in my spirit way down low
I hear it calling like a compass in my soul
Saying child, come on back now
You've been gone too long!
Let me lead you back where you belong
Right next to Me

(Oh, oh)
You know I've tried to do it on my own
(Oh, oh)
You say it's time for me to come back home
Won't you come back home?

(I get this) feeling in my spirit way down low
(I hear it) calling like a compass in my soul
(Saying) child, come on back now
You've been gone too long
Let me lead you back where you belong

I get this feeling in my spirit way down low
I hear it calling like a compass in my soul
Saying child, come on back now
You've been gone too long!
Let me lead you back where you belong

Right next to Me
Right next to Me

You put the X on my faded map
Draw me a line back to where You're at
