I woke up with this song stuck in my head
But it had not been written, so I stayed in bed
Sang this melody and strummed along
Took what's in my heart and put it into a song
It's simple and sweet, like the love she gives to me
I want to keep that girl right next to me
I told myself this time, don't jump the gun
It takes a lot of time to truly know someone
And I'm better off alone, that's the way it seems
If love is just a product, it's cruel chemistry
But she's awfully sweet, and that's all I'll ever need
I want to keep that girl right next to me
When we're apart, I'm feeling oh so sick
But when she lays her head on my chest
My heart starts racing, I'm a lunatic
When we're together, I am at my absolute best
She's awfully sweet, and makes me feel complete
I want to keep that girl right next to me
Yeah she's awfully sweet, she's my candy-coated dream
I want to keep that girl right next to me
