Closer to You

Words and Music by Jim Cullen

 

Got home early last night another one down and an endless string to go

I was thinkin’ about how well we sometimes get along

Every day we arrive at new conclusions blow away illusions

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

 

The first time out is always wide-eyed fascination

A curious love playing a cautious hand

Then somewhere down the road you meet a familiar stranger

Standing the test of time

Changing the pace we’re still in the race

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

 

Communications break down causing bad relations

Not listening with your head or with your heart

You can widen the gap or bridge the distance with a word

Standing the test of time

(We’re) Changing the pace we’re still in the race

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

 

Cleaning house and throwing out old situations

Beginning with each heart beat a brand-new start

Someone once said two hearts can beat as one together

Standing the test of time

Changing the pace we’re still in the race

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you

(I can) Feel myself getting closer (closer to you)

I can feel myself getting closer to you

Closer to you (Closer to You)

 

I can feel myself getting closer to you
