Can I breathe next to you

a poem by Altaaf Jaffer

Everyday, I realize that you are all that I need
I’ve been prayin’ for some lovin’ in my life
I’ve been cravin’ for some lovin’ from your side

I love the things you say and all the things you do
Don’t you need some loving too?
Honey let me come closer to you everyday,
I realize that you are all that I need
I’ve been prayin’ for some loving in my life
I’ve been cravin’ for some lovin’ from your side

I love the things you say and all the things you do
Don’t you need some loving too?
Honey let me come closer to you everyday,
I realize that you are all that I need
I’ve been prayin’ for some loving in my life
I’ve been cravin’ for some lovin’ from your side

I love the things you say and all the things you do
Don’t you need some loving too?
Honey let me come closer to you
Baby, Can I breathe next to you?
‘Coz I know you’ll drive away my blues
Darling, I love to love you recklessly
Won’t you let me hold you close to you?

Tonight, I’ve been watching you close to me
Quietly, I’m wishing you were holding me
I’d love to spend life with you by my side
I’d love to live with you until I die

I love the scent you wear and the clothes you choose
Take my hand and take me
everywhere with you
Honey let me come closer to you

Can I breathe next to you? Feel your lips on top of mine
Lemme touch your skin tonight
Babe, move ya body close to mine.
