[Verse 1]
I wanna be there
When you turn out the lights
I wanna be there
But I'm here on this lonely highway
In the middle of nowhere

[Verse 2]
I wanna hold you
If you wake up in the night
I wanna hold you
I wanna be there in the morning
Oh, so I can touch you

[Chorus]
Know tonight
There's nowhere else that I would rather be
I'm not the same when you're not here with me
Close your eyes and say a little prayer
And baby I'm gonna be there

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
(I'll be there)
Wanna be there (I wanna be there)
I wanna be there (Wanna be there)
Wanna be there in the morning (And night)
Oh, I wanna be there
[Chorus]
'Cause you know tonight
There's nowhere else that I would rather be
I'm not the same when you're not here with me
Close your eyes and say a little prayer (Say a little prayer)
And baby I'm gonna be there

[Outro]
Wanna be there in the morning (And night)
Oh, I wanna be there
