When I Need You Lyrics - I Know - Luther Vandross

No one knows the side of you that I know 

No one gets to see, to feel you 

To hear you when they call 

I'm the only one you answer 

Because I know what to do 

I know what to do 

When I need you 

I just close my eyes and I'm with you 

And all that I so want to give you 

Is only a heartbeat away 

When I need love 

I hold out my hand and I touch love 

I never knew there was so much love 

Keeping me warm night and day 

Miles and miles of empty space in between us 

A telephone can't take the place of your smile 

But I won't be traveling forever 

It's cold out, but hold out 

And do like I do 

When I need you 

I just close my eyes and I'm with you 

And all that I so want to give you 

Is only a heartbeat away 

It's not easy when the road is your driver 

But honey that's the heavy load that we bear 

But I won't be traveling a lifetime 

It's cold out, but hold out 

And do like I do 

When I need you 

But I won't be traveling a lifetime 

It's cold out, oh honey, hold out 

And do like I do 

When I need you 

I just close my eyes and I'm with you baby 

And all that I so want to give you 

Is only a heartbeat away 

When I need love 

I hold out my hand and I touch love 

I never knew there was so much love 

Keeping me warm night and day 

Honey, when I need you 

I'm in a cloud and I'm holding my hand out to you 

Holding my hand out to you 

Holding my hand out for you
