Closer Songtext
von Mark Wills

I woke up 33, not quite where I thought I′d be
Fell short of a lot of dreams and expectations that are put on me
A lot of those things I thought I'd need
Don′t mean as much as I thought they'd mean
I sure got far away from where I'd say I′d be today

But I′m closer to right where I should have been
To the man I really am and to the friends who call me friend
And I'm even closer to the woman that I love, to my faith in God above
I′m still not sure exactly where it is I'm going
But I′m closer, little bit closer


Well, I guess at some point that switch turned off
And I stopped being the man I'm not
But counting on what I ain′t got
And I found a faith somewhere I lost

And got closer to right where I should have been
To the man I really am and to the friends who call me friend
And I'm even closer to the family I left behind
And that world I'd thought I′d find
When I left it thinking there was something more
Yet I′m closer, closer

I woke up 33, not quite where I thought I'd be

Closer to right where I should have been
To the man I really am and to the friends who call me friend
And I′m even closer to the woman that I love, to my faith in God above
I'm still not sure exactly where it is I′m going
But I'm closer, closer
I′m getting closer
