Close (Your Shoes)

(album: Are We There Yet? - 2023)

Let me know just how you're feeling
Let me know your pain or joy
Let me walk in your shoes
And feel a life I've never known
Feel a life I've never known

You look like the world is on your shoulders
Feels like you're sinking like a stone
Hurting so much, feels like life is over
You got to let me in
You got to let me in

I want to be close
Don't want to be strangers
Want to be near to you
Yeah, I want to be close
Away from the danger
Want to be close
Yeah, I want to be close to you

Tell me why you're keeping secrets
Tell me what you have to hide
Tell me why you keep me out
Of a life that I have never known
A life that I have never known

Feels like you're wounded like a soldier
I know you're broken to the bone
Hurting so much feels like life is over
You got to let me in
You got to let me in

'Cause I want to be close
Don't want to be strangers
Want to be near to you
Yeah, I want to be close
Away from the danger
Want to be close
Yeah, I want to be close to you

You got to let me in
You got to let me in

'Cause I want to be close
Don't want to be strangers
Want to be near to you
Yeah, I want to be close
Away from the danger
I want to be close
Yeah, I want to be close to you

I want to be close
Don't want to be strangers
Want to be close
Want to be close
