Lyrics: Whenever You're Near

I got a reputation
Never had a single thought
Of settling down
As the train left the station
Never shed a single tear
Just said my good-byes
But you touched me deep inside
Now I can't believe
I'm the one who's looking back
As you said good-bye to me

Whenever you're near
I'm in ecstasy
Whenever you're gone
I'm in misery
Don'tcha know
That you bring out the best in me
Whenever you're near

Yeah cause my share of sorrow
I walked off on promises
And love's passed me by
But now you've turned the tables
See you make me feel
As though it's my turn to die
There's a little girl inside
Who's lost on her way
Only you can bring me back
I know you know the words to say

Whenever you're near
I'm in ecstasy
Whenever you're gone
I'm in misery
Don'tcha know
That you bring out the best in me
Whenever you're near

I feel your chemistry
Boy watcha do to me
I lose all control
And when the morning comes
Yeah you loved and gone
Don'tcha know I need it
Over and over and over and over again

Yeah you touched me deep inside
Now I can't say no
Dragged my heart around
I'm never gonna let you go

Whenever you're near
I'm in ecstasy
Whenever you're gone
I'm in misery
Boy, you don't understand
Whatcha do to me

Whenever you're near
I'm in ecstasy
Whenever you're gone
I'm in misery
Don'tcha know
That you bring out the best in me
Whenever you're near
