Next to You
¾¯²ìÀÖ¶ÓThe Police Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you live so many miles away
Nothing here is gonna make me stay
You took me over, led me far away
I sold my house
I sold my motor, too
All I want is to be next to you
Maybe steal a plane
You took me over
Think I'm goin' insane
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
I've had a thousand girls or maybe more
But I've never felt like this before
But I just don't know what's come over me
You took me over, take a look at me
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
So many times I used to give a sign
Got this feeling, gonna lose my mind
When all it is is just a love affair
You took me over baby, take me there
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you {What can I do}
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you
All I want is to be next to you...
The Police's song "Next to You" appears to be a love song expressing the singer's intense desire to be close to his lover. Through the opening lines, the song sets a tone of desperation and anxiety as the singer cannot stand being so far away from his love for another day. The need to be physically close to the other person is so strong that it has led to him selling his house and motor to be with them. The tone becomes even more urgent as the singer contemplates the idea of robbing a bank or stealing a plane to be with the person he loves.
The song seems to be driven by the feeling of being overwhelmed by the power of love, as the singer has had a thousand girls before, but has never felt this way before. He is willing to do almost anything to be with his lover, and the intensity of his emotions is so much that he feels like he might be going insane. The chorus, which repeats several times throughout the song, emphasizes the desire to be next to the person he loves.
Ultimately, the sentiment of “Next to You” is one of unbridled passion driven by the desire to be with someone, regardless of the cost. The song’s frantic pace and repetitive choruses amplify the sense of urgency, longing, and desperation at its core.

Lyrics which should've been there:
You got a life, which were given from above,
I`ll pray to GOD every day, that your life be blessed.
Your life`s a test (life`s a test), to show, where you will go.
There is no 3th way, to leave this place for good.
GOD give HIS life up for you, to show you`re loved.
And soul, everything that GOD has, shall be your`s,
you will never ever go hungry.
He`ll be there, when you`re insecure, lets you know that HE`ll never leave your sight.
Cause you are, the only soul, needing saviour.
One day, when the sky is darkened, GOD shall stand right next to you, right next to you.
Nothing will never stand between you two `cause He`ll be standing right next to you, right next to you.
GOD is you MAKER,(GOD is the MAKER), GOD shall make your life complete.
Just keep the faith and follow Christ's lead, you will be alright.
And soul, everything that GOD has, shall be your`s,
you will never ever go hungry.
He`ll be there, when you`re insecure, lets you know that HE`ll never leave your sight.
Cause you are, the only soul, needing saviour.
One day, when the sky is darkened, GOD shall stand right next to you, right next to you.
Nothing will never stand between you two `cause He`ll be standing right next to you, right next to you.
GOD is you MAKER,(GOD is the MAKER), GOD shall make your life complete.
Just keep the faith and follow Christ's lead, you will be alright.
Cause you were made, for praising GOD now and then, (now and then)
and have no fear, GOD knows your darkest thoughts.
(ohhohohoooh)
One day, when the sky is darkened, GOD shall stand right next to you, right next to you.
Nothing will never stand between you two `cause He`ll be standing right next to you, right next to you.
(ohh nan na) stand by GOD`S sight (sight 2x)
When the sky have darkened, you be gone, be gone.
You got a life, which were given from above, so keep it hidden in GOD`S SON.
