A song asking for help and encouragement when you're feeling down, talking to that special someone who, in the words of the man himself (A. P. Alexakis), 'when I lose my sparkle she's the only one who understands'. This is a fast paced, euphoric, anthemic track. And that lyric was from 'The Good Witch of the North', from the album 'Songs from an American Movie, Vol. Two: Good Time for a Bad Attitude', by Everclear. So go buy the damn thing!

Build Me Up Inside

(talking, whispering)

You know I care,

you just don't know how much

I really love you..

I need you...

(quiet, then kick in)

Don't leave me here
All alone
All on my own
I'll apart inside
Without you near

I need you with me
Letting me see
What I live is nothing
Compared to you

I need you with me
Showing me just what I can be
Have to see you telling me
Just what I can do

(filler down the quiet)

I feel it within me
Building up as I watch you
See me be

I just need you with me
All I need to survive
Survive in this hostile
struggle filled life

Build me up inside
Don't let me run
And hide
Without you...

(quiet, then kick in)

Don't leave me here
All alone
All on my own
I'll apart inside
Without you near

I need you with me
Letting me see
What I live is nothing
Compared to you

I need you with me
Showing me just what I can be
Have to see you telling me
Just what I can do

(filler down the quiet)

You're with me all day
In every single way
I appreciate you
I really do...

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

You don't know how much
I love feeling your touch
As you tell me good things
As you build me up inside

Don't let me run and hide
I want you near
To whisper in my ear
All those things I need
To build me

Build me up inside
Let me live my life
How we both want

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, now...

Build me up inside
Let me live my life
How I want to live
With you beside

Build me up inside
Let me life my life
How I wish I could live
With you near...

(quiet, then kick in)

Don't leave me here
All alone
All on my own
I'll fall apart inside
Without you near

I need you with me
Letting me see
What I live is nothing
Compared to you

I need you with me
Showing me just what I can be
Have to see you telling me
Just what I can do

(filler down the quiet)

(talking, whisper)

You don't know how much

I caress your touch

Won't you just build me up inside

(end)
