Next To You
Big Collapse Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't stand it for another day
When you live so many miles away
Nothing here is gonna make me stay
You took me over, let me find a way

I sold my house, I sold my motor, too
'Cause all I want is to be next to you
I'd rob a bank, 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
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

Saw the doctor, he said give it time
Got the 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

What can I do...

Overall Meaning

The song "Next to You" by Big Collapse expresses the powerful desire one feels to be with someone they love, even when they live far away. The singer cannot stand the thought of being apart for another day and is willing to do whatever it takes to be next to their loved one. This passion is evident in the lyrics when the singer says they have sold their house, motor, and would even rob a bank or steal a plane just to be next to them. The singer feels like they are going insane because of this overwhelming love and cannot think of anything else.

The singer describes their previous experiences with thousands of girls but has never felt the way they do now with their current love interest. They feel like they are losing their mind and sought the advice of a doctor who instructed them to give it time. The singer acknowledges that it might be just a love affair, but they cannot help feeling overcome by the desire to be next to their love interest.

The song is a beautiful expression of the kind of pure, unadulterated love and desire that one may feel for another person. It is a song about the lengths we are willing to go to be close to the people we love, and how overwhelming that love can be.

Line by Line Meaning

I can't stand it for another day
I cannot bear living so far away from you for any longer

When you live so many miles away
The distance between us is causing me unbearable pain

Nothing here is gonna make me stay
I am willing to leave everything behind to be with you

You took me over, let me find a way
You have captured my heart and given me the courage to pursue you

I sold my house, I sold my motor, too
I am willing to give up everything I own to be with you

'Cause all I want is to be next to you
Being with you is my only desire

I'd rob a bank, maybe steal a plane
I am willing to do anything to be with you, even if it's illegal

You took me over, think I'm goin' insane
Being in love with you has made me feel crazy and overwhelmed

I've had a thousand girls or maybe more
I have had many relationships in the past, but none compare to how I feel about you

But I've never felt like this before
The way I feel about you is completely new and different

I just don't know what's come over me
I am surprised and confused by how strongly I feel for you

You took me over, take a look at me
You have completely captivated and changed me

Saw the doctor, he said give it time
I sought professional help because of how overwhelmed I feel

Got the feeling gonna lose my mind
My feelings for you are so intense that I fear I am losing my sanity

When all it is is just a love affair
Despite my craziness, all my feelings come down to love

You took me over, baby, take me there
I attribute all of my feelings to how much you have swept me off my feet

What can I do?
I am at a loss for what I can do to be with you

All I want is to be next to you
All I desire is to be close to you

Great content on this channel. And excellent point about cable. I pay right around $60 a month for cable and all I really watch is the local and national news on one channel, maybe the occasional sports game and that's it. I have to ask myself that's worth $800 per year?

I appreciate every thing you share, every stat, every bit of info, every insight!! You break it down and make it so real, you have a great ethical presence. I try to watch you every day and I'm sharing your link with everyone I know. You are my rock, helping me on this e-commerce entrepreneur journey, and I'm soaking it all up!

Makes perfect sense. I've always felt that market data analysis and R&D should be a core part of every organization that wants to be a market leader.

Great video as always. Adaptability is my takeaway. And obviously the target audience.

Valuetainment

Lori Love

You made some really good points, you got me thinking a lot, I have been struggling with getting rid of my cable even though I do not watch it because I am afraid I am going to regret the decision, the one thing that has to change for sure is that netflix and hulu and such has to have an easier way of searching for content, as it stands right now turning on my cable is just so much easier and which is causing me to not take that plunge, but I think it is inevitable that in time there will be some big changes coming up, why cable does not lower their prices is beyond me, cable use to be not only way cheaper but even better in the past.

Lori Love

@***** Cable is good for one thing and that is the internet service they provide for us to be able to use social media and for streaming, downloading and using the very sites that is making people use less cable, for that very reason probably cable will never go anywhere too, they will always have their hand in the pot.

Valuetainment

+lovelife02 Cable doesn't have to lower their prices because people are still willing to pay for it. The younger generation is about change the entire business of Cable.

I'm 21 and when I moved out at 19 I dont own a tv. I dont even have a desire to. I use my phone to watch things like netflix and youtube and im content. The major networks should definitely expand themselves to the internet. Live streaming on the smart phone, packages on your phone to include certain news stations. Like alot of the radio stations and stuff are all on apps now. Spotify, amazon music, youtube reb, pandora, wben, and etc. Anothing thing to consider is gaming and peoples game systems, most video and movie businesses are linked to your xbox or playstation. The smart tvs and the fact that people are linking their phones to their tvs anyway. Cable and dish are in trouble.

This is a really great video and I cant wait to read the book you suggested. Thanks Pat for always keeping me thinking!

Don Duerme

Another great sharing Patrick! Looking forward in being part of your team when I get back.

I truly agree. television will become obsolete. everything that is broadcasted on television both paid and live content is easily accessible online. thanks for the insight. #innovationfortomorrow

Nick Gavras

Agree. We dumped cable a few years back. I read in a newsletter in 2012 that cable would be next industry to go and moved on to the Netflix/Hulu/Amazon train. The networks will have to adapt their content delivery or they too will close down. Just like slide rules, pagers, and record players are no longer in use the same will one day occur.

Valuetainment

+Nick Gavras Interesting. They will need to adapt very quickly before it's too late.

trudevotion313

thanks for your time to make these videos and love the information and knowledge.

Valuetainment

+trudevotion313 Thanks for the Love.

TexasRedneck

One reason for all of the LIVE broadcasts and shows that ask you to vote live. They know that DVRs and torrent sites started the downfall and now with Netflix, Hulu,...etc the large broadcasting stations are, I think, struggling to look for content that will keep people watching their shows. Even though those large companies now have their own OnDemand content on their websites.

Valuetainment

8y↑2

+TexasRedneck The challenge with them is they move to slow. The hierarchy of executives is so high that to make a decision takes a long time which is why the smaller company that's more nimble will have an edge on the bigger companies.

Pat your a FREAKING GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is EXACTLY why i watch Valuetainment DAILY!!!!
young aspiring entrepreneur looking on starting a new business in my country and i have a few questions i'd like you to answer. Almost in the line of you somehow mentoring me online. could you inform me on what way would be best for me to personally contact you. I understand your a busy man and i onlu have a handful of questions so i wont take too much of your valuable time.

Valuetainment

👍😉

# years late to the game but Patrick is 100% Right. I havent owned a TV in over 5 years. I only watch 2 shows on TV and I watch them on YOU tube anyway. TV has so many channels yet theres never anything to watch. Its just backround noise.

Chase Peterson

This is definitely a big opportunity for companies like Roku and the Amazon Fire stick. They are extremely cheap especially cheaper than normal TV, and they have all of the growing media platforms on them (YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, etc.). Soon TV is going to be a thing of the past 💨

Valuetainment

It's a big opportunity for those who capitalize off of it.

Victor Mendoza

Good points. I am going to think about this for my business.

Paul Democritou

That's actually a great point of view and got me thinking Ben. Great work

T Mack

Extrememely valuable info Pat.

clark bolding

Those numbers are absolutely staggering. When you get confident you fail. You must adapt or die. I agree that streaming media is the future and the old school companies better figure it out soon.

I would have to disagree with the big networks collapsing. A lot of the big networks have streaming apps and the they are also streaming through the Netflix and and Hulu platforms. However I do believe services like Comcast, Direct TV, Dish, and so on will collapse in the future

Valuetainment

+MyBeingMyself I mention in the video that those who adjust will be fine but most big companies move very slow. That's the edge their smaller competitors have.

Fred Garvin

I got online at age 32, and It has slowly changed my viewing habits as streaming capabilities improved. I cut the cable 6 yrs ago at age 50. Right now, I watch Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and Youtube Red. And I will change sources as soon as I see a better one. I'm not watching Fox or CNN or MSNBC. I'm an older viewer, you can imagine what younger ones are doing.

Fantastic

Good morning PBD. Nice video. I have a book recomendation for you. It´s named How the mighty fall by Jim Collins. It is one of the firsts books I read and it is very good I enjoyed it and it is a book to read not just one time. Have a good day!

Guillermo Catamo

the Big Networks should give more opportunities for young people like youtube, many young people have good ideas to make good tv.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm in the UK, and the point is still valid

l

Agree. Getting to the point where owning a business is too risky now days. Entire industries get wiped out in a few years with no warning.

End The Fed

Valuetainment two reasons, 1. The business landscape is changing extremely rapidly cuz of technology (electric cars, self driving vehicles, drones coming into picture, even laptops will be obsolete in a few years etc.). 2. Existing industries are not able to cope with this rapid shift cuz of massive infrastructure they have already setup for their business. New infrastructure costs lots of money even for players with deep pockets. They hesitate as they are in dilemma whether investment in mew technology would be worth it or not. Whereas the new players (entrepreneurs) get into the game very aggressively as they are already in a do or die situation, hence they win.

Valuetainment

8y↑1

+l The real question to ask is why? Why are they getting wiped out?

Theo J Ellis

I'm from the UK, and am a Millennial, but your statistics are still relevant none the less. Social Media is a perfect example of big trends starting from the younger generation. just look at snapchat and Instagram for example. Informative video as always

Thank you Patrick.

You make best videos.VALUETAINMENT is best channel.

thegangstagentle

It’s very obvious that you were never in the media business. And it’s even funnier to watch this for years later, when TV networks are not only that, but A lot of influencers from YouTube have their shows on TV networks. Point at trends, do not make predictions, because you lose credibility

Pat, there is nothing to agree, you displayed like open secret. Its 99.99% true, 0.01 anything may happen. I am from India the same way you predicted i though . when MAA channel (telugu lang 20% people watch it every day) is purchased by another STAR channel (This is India wide channel). I though, i dont watch TV, days are changing why dont they make investment in innovative company like Netflix.

Rashaad thegr8

Hulu parent companies are NBCUniversal Television Group, FOX, Disney–ABC Television Group. So the Big Networks will always find away to get that money. It's like music even though most people don't buy CDs music is still being sold whether its through touring or subscriptions. TV is just another medium. CD Players or DVD players was popular then have now gotten replace with ipods, tablets, and smart phones. Also some networks such as VH1 and Oxygen don't even let you watch full episodes anymore unless you have login with login cabel company information.

Valuetainment

+sophisticatedswanson True. Call me anything but Myspace! ;)

Rashaad thegr8

Yep. There was no Google when I was a kid the #1 search engine was yahoo,aol, or ask jeeves. The main motto of business is innovate or die aka myspace.lol.

Valuetainment

+sophisticatedswanson True. The smart ones will buy them out but there will come a company like Amazon and Google who are not for sale that will revolutionize the entire way business is done in Media.

I am a big fan but, Is cable down, go look at direct tv revenue. Netflix , Hulu stream tv shows and movie and only make some there selfs while fox Comcast cbs they make the tv shows and movies.they make hundred of billions of dollars. Each of them. Also look up and see who's hulus parent organizations are ( Turner Broadcasting System, NBCUniversal, Disney–ABC Television Group, Fox Entertainment Group, 21st Century Fox) . Netflix only did 8.8 billion in revenue in 2016. I like facts too.

Where there is good internet speeds, television is on the decline. Only freeview will survive in the UK. Sky and Cable are losing unless they get online fully.
