Closer to Your Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's the same old story
When someone astounds you
The harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away
(chorus)
I've got a notion
I might as well be closer to your heart
It's out in the open
I might as well be closer to your heart
Tossing and turning
And burning dreams across the night
(forever searching)
Silently waiting for such a long time
But will I know tomorrow
If you will be mine?
(repeat chorus)
So it's the same old story
When someone astounds you
That the harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Like takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus)
