You won't find him drinking at the tables Rolling dice and staying out 'til three You won't ever find him being unfaithful You will find him, you'll find him next to me You won't find him trying to chase the devil For money, fame, for power, out of grief You won't ever find him where the rest go You will find him, you'll find him next to me Next to me, oh Next to me, oh Next to me, oh You will find him, you'll find him next to me When the money's spent and all my friends have vanished And I can't seem to find no help or love for free I know there's no need for me to panic 'Cause I'll find him, I'll find him next to me When the skies are gray and all the doors are closing And the rising pressure makes it hard to breathe When all I need's a hand to stop the tears from falling I will find him, I'll find him next to me Next to me, oh Next to me, oh Next to me, oh I will find him, I'll find him next to me When the end has come and buildings falling down fast When we spoilt the land and dried up all the sea When everyone has lost their heads around us You will find him, you'll find him next to me Next to me, oh Next to me, oh Next to me, oh You will find him, you'll find him next to me Next to me, oh Next to me, oh Next to me, oh You will find him, you'll find him next to me
