Closer

You know it had nothing to do with you
But you couldn't see things for what they are
I know you don't see who you used to
But I'm doing better
I'm better off, when you're far
I never thought it'd ever grow to last this song
But there was something about you, that threw me off
I never thought I'd ever have to be so strong
But there was something about you, that's never gone
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I thought I really had it this time
Man I thought I really had this time
I thought I really had it this time
Man I guess doesn't matter this time
It never was enough for me to be
By your side
By your side
I bent back
It never was enough for you to see
That you and I
We are alive, but we crashed
How could I ever know that it'd be this way
I had a feeling about you
But what was I to say
I know that if I let her
She would start to stray
I had a feeling about you
Blow me away
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I thought I really had it this time
Man I thought I really had this time
I thought I really had it this time
Man I guess doesn't matter this time
You might agree we're seeing different shit
But from my point of view
The way this picture sits
Is awfully crooked
We left the frame in flames
We know the ones we blame
Regardless of saying names
Whenever I'm with you, I feel euphoria
Until we get to fighting and shouting and flip the story up
That's when it's real, and that's the part I hate
The part that crawls under your skin
At this alarming rate
And suddlenly it's all about whether I love you
And about whether you love me
Or about whether I trust you
I must do what I believe is right
I've gotta do just what my heart is telling me to do and
Leave tonight
Cause even though the past is the past
I still fucked you over, that was my bad
And I'm apologizing now for all the shit I did to hurt you
It was never my intencion to fall in love and desert you
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I get a little bit closer
Every time that I find love
I thought I really had it this time
Man I thought I really had this time
I thought I really had it this time
Man I guess doesn't matter this time
