Closer to You Songtext
von The Wallflowers

How soft a whisper can get
When you′re walking through a crowded space
I hear every word being said
And I remember that every day
I get a little bit closer to you, to you

How long an hour can take
When you're staring into open space
When I feel I′m slipping further away
But I remember that every day
I get a little bit closer to you
To you, to you
To you


These are the days
That I won't get back
I won't hear you cry
Or hear you laugh
And when it′s quiet
And I don′t hear a thing
Well, I can always hear you breathe

You know there's nowhere else I′ve wanted to be
Than be there when you needed me
I'm sorry too but don′t give up on me
And just remember that when you were asleep
I got a little bit closer to you
To you, to you
To you, to you

You know there's nowhere else I′ve wanted to be (to you)
Than be there when you needed me (to you)
I'm sorry too but don't give up on me (to you)
And just remember that when you were asleep (to you)
I got a little bit closer to you
To you, to you
