Next In Line

(Tommy L. Day)

A song partially inspired by Mr. Big’s “To Be With You”, and written in early Beatles style. The lyrics evoke a feeling of longing and desire to form a deeper relationship with someone. The tone is somewhat bluesy, which matches the yearning lyrics.

(v1) You say your love for me will last an eternity But how can I be sure you won’t leave They said you wouldn’t stay, they said to stay away And I don’t know what to believe (Refrain) Oh please, say you’ll be mine Be mine till the end of time And please don’t let me be The next one in line (v2) Baby, I’d like to love you, but you must promise to be true I can give you all the love you need So forget about the queue, let it be me and you I’ve got to know before we can proceed (Refrain) Oh please, say you’ll be mine Be mine till the end of time And please don’t let me be The next one in line (Bridge) My friends all say you’re no good And I should let you go In my mind, it’s understood But in my heart, I never could (v3) So I’m hopin’ you will see, and you’ll give your heart to me ‘Cos I can’t go on this way anymore So darling, take my hand, let me take you to a wonderland And know that no one else could love you more (Refrain) Oh please, say you’ll be mine Be mine till the end of time And please don’t let me be The next one in line (Coda) Oh don’t let me be No baby, don’t I can't go on no more
