Next To You
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" is a love song expressing the fervent desire of the singer to be physically close to his beloved. He is unable to stand being away from her for even a single day, so much so that he sold his house and motor just to move closer to her. He is willing to go to any lengths, even rob a bank or steal a plane, just to be with her. The singer describes feeling like he is going insane because of the intensity of his love for her. He acknowledges that he has had countless romantic experiences in the past, but the way he feels about his current love interest is unprecedented. He is helpless and consumed by his love, with the sole desire of being next to his lover.
The lyrics express a deep longing for physical proximity and the overwhelming power of love. The singer seems to be obsessed and desperate to be close to his love interest. The song captures the idea of love being all-consuming and overpowering, which often leads to irrational decisions and behavior from the lover. The driving guitar riff and energetic percussion add to the urgency of the lyrics, emphasizing the singer's desperation to be with his lover.

I can't stand it for another day
I can't bear to be apart from you for any longer
When you live so many miles away
Your distance is causing me great pain
Nothing here is gonna make me stay
There's nothing keeping me here, I'm ready to leave
You took me over, led me far away
You have complete control over my heart and have taken me to a faraway place
I sold my house
I got rid of everything I owned
I sold my motor, too
I even sold my means of transportation
All I want is to be next to you
Being by your side is all I desire
I'd rob a bank
I would do anything, even something illegal, to be with you
Maybe steal a plane
I would even go as far as stealing a plane to get to you
Think I'm goin' insane
I think I'm losing my mind over you
I've had a thousand girls or maybe more
I've had many relationships, but none compare to you
But I've never felt like this before
My feelings for you are completely new and intense
But I just don't know what's come over me
I'm confused and surprised by the strength of my feelings
Take a look at me
See how much you've affected me
All I want is to be next to you
Being with you is the only thing that matters
All I want is to be next to you... {What can I do}
I am completely devoted to being with you, no matter what it takes

First song, first album, and it fades with live play continuously! I love it!

Well, it's a helluva song and chorus!

That is one important part of album sequencing - make sure that the opening track makes a strong impression right away, so that the listeners want to continue experiencing the full album.
A few other important rules of thumb are to put songs in an order so that the transitions between them sound as good as possible (one great example of this is Metallica's transition from "Battery" to "Master Of Puppets" on the Master Of Puppets album - that transition is perfect), and also to arrange the tracks so that there aren't too many fast or slow songs in a row, so that you have maybe one slow song after a couple fast songs, so that the listeners can catch their breath, and so on.

Now I can hear how this inspired the Foo Fighters. They even covered it live with Stewart on the drums!

I had no idea that sting was so edgy as a young man. I often thought he was responsible for the mainstream pop rock movement
