Closer To Me

(album: The Beauty Of The Rain - 2003)

You can leave this house, leave this town
Leave it all to me, or you'll never leave the ground
Look at that tiny screen's too small for you
I think you should learn to dream, just like the dreamers do

What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get, the closer to me

Am I the habit you're too tired to break?
I want you to love me with every step you take

What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get, the closer to me

Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
Frozen lake, cypress trees, Florida's missing keys
El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just find your way in

You should leave this house, leave this town
All that's left to chart is nothing less than your own heart

What can you do with a day?
What will you wake up and see?
The farther you get, the closer to me

Down the river, down the road, Little Rock, Tokyo
Dusty trail, Flagstaff, in a faded photograph
Thunderstorm, Golden Sands, Cape of Horn
Pakistan, Surinam, Highway One, Chinatown, smoking gun
Golden Gate, Baltic Sea, Painted Desert, Laramie
Taj Mahal, Cameroon, back in time, to the moon
Frozen lake, cypress trees, Florida's missing keys
El Dorado, Spain or bust, Eiffel Tower, Paris, just find your way in
