Closer And Closer And Closer
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.
At first, I'll hide behind the trees
Trembling uugh
As I do in winter
In time I'll start to feel at ease
Show my face and well beginter
Beginter?
Get closer
And closer
And closer
Well go a glance at a time
A small advance at a time
Well be afraid a bit
And shy a bit
Avoid eachothers eye
A bit less often each day
The eyes will soften each day
As we get closer
And closer
And closer
Well go a blush at a time
A happy flush at a time
Begin to laugh a bit and stare a bit
And walk around on air a bit
As daily we grow
As night and daily we grow
A little closer
And closer
And closer
And then one day
There will come a day
A Christmas eve midsummer day
A moment when right there and then
Were gonna touch
Then well jump miles at a time
A million smiles at a time
Begin to love alot
And live alot
And give and give and give alot
Away we will go
And every day we will grow
A little closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closern
All the time
And then one day
There will come a day
A Christmas eve midsummer day
A moment when
Right there and then
Were gonna touch
Well go a glance at a time
A small advance at a time
Well be afraid a bit
And shy a bit
Avoid eachothers eye
A bit less often each day
The eyes will soften each day
As we get closer
And closer
And closer
Well go a blush at a time
A happy flush at a time
Begin to laugh a bit and stare a bit
And walk around on air a bit
As daily we grow
As night and daily we grow
A little closer
And closer
And closer
And then one day
There will come a day
A Christmas eve, midsummer day
Begin to love alot
And live alot
And give and give and give alot
Away we will go
And everyday we will grow
A little closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
And closer
All the time
