Closer To You

Closer To You

Brandi Carlile

It's hard to let the miles pass me by

Yellow lines that blend together in my eyes

And when the seasons change again then I will too

~~~~~~

I'm staring out at endless rows of green

There are miles of hay like I have never seen

Just when you think you've had enough and

your dreams come true

I just want to be closer to you

My mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from

I tried not to let you down

Now I wonder if I've been doin' something wrong

Help me get my feet back on the ground...

~~~~~~

Tomorrow I'll be lying under you

With a heart of gold and arms to fall into

I know that there might come a day

where my life is through

But I just want to be closer to you

My mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from

I tried not to let you down

Now I wonder if I've been doin' something wrong

Help me get my feet back on the ground...

~~~~~~

Someday we might learn to tell the truth

We might even find the fountains of our youth

We all needed something real we all need proof

I just want to be closer to you

I only want to be closer to you
