Closer

(album: Tall Stories - 1991)

All night I've been awake
you on my mind
I've made a big mistake
to leave you behind
you know it's hard to sleep
on a bed of nails
I know that I was wrong
you knew it all along

I was a fool
nothing better to do
than fail again
blame it on you
sometimes I don't know
how I ever get you back
There's so much I need to say
but you're so far away
get closer, closer
that's all I wanna to do

They say there's an other light
shining out there
they say there's a happy life
who can tell me where
they say that love can fly
like smoke in the air
I don't care what they say
when you're so far away

oh-just wanna get closer
oh-closer to you
oh-just wanna get closer, closer
that's all I wanna to do
