[Verse 1]
I need you here to be by
When I'm down
I need you here to be by
When I'm down
I'm falling in love
Against the ropes
[Chorus]
I need you to be by when I'm down
Need you to see clear when I can't
Need you to love me when I'm wrong
The one thing I stress the most is
I'll keep you close, keep you close, keep you close, keep you close
[Verse 2]
I need you here to be by
When I'm down
I need you here to be by
When I'm down
I'm falling in love
Against the ropes
[Chorus]
I need you to be by when I'm down
Need you to see clear when I can't
Need you to love me when I'm wrong
The one thing I stress the most is
I'll keep you close, keep you close, keep you close, keep you close
I need you to be by when I'm down
Need you to see clear when I can't
Need you to love me when I'm wrong
The one thing I stress the most is
I'll keep you close, keep you close, keep you close, keep you close
[Verse 3]
I need you to guide me when I'm lost
I need you to cool me when I'm crossed
When it seems my time is up
Know that you always had my trust
Remember how we felt at first
Did you believe now that it works
I had regrets but let them go
Made mistakes so I could grow
[Verse 4]
I keep you picture in my phone
For when I'm broken and alone
You pick me up when I'm not strong
When I feel I can't go on
Open up my world and shine
Forever the one that's on my mind
Forever the one, I'll make you mine
[Chorus]
I need you to be by when I'm down
Need you to see clear when I can't
Need you to love me when I'm wrong
The one thing I stress the most is
I'll keep you close, keep you close, keep you close, keep you close
